    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, many of the amendments I had were dropped because they were also incorporated by the Committee. If you look at the way Clause 24 is listed, it is written in such a way that even the procedure of conducting business of Bills is chaotic. So, because this Act provides that the Standing Orders of the National Assembly shall apply to all counties until such a time that they will have their own Standing Orders, I think it is better that we do away with such a chaotic procedure. This is because Section 5 says: “Amendments to the Bill may be moved by hon. Members in writing at any time before the closure of the debate”. That means that the Committee Stage of debate and the Second Reading are intertwined. So, I think, even for my case, the procedure is so chaotic. It is better that the Standing Orders are used for any procedure on Bills until such a time when the counties will have their own."
