However, His Excellency the President, pursuant to Section 46(3) and (4) of the former Constitution as saved under Section 3 of the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution declined to give his assent and submitted on 27th February, 2012 a memorandum on the Bill indicating specific provisions of the Bill which should be reconsidered by the National Assembly, including recommendations for deletion and amendments. The memorandum by His Excellency the President reads as follows: “Now, therefore, in exercise of the powers conferred on me by Section 46(3) and (4) of the former Constitution, I refuse to assent to the County Governments Bill, 2012 for the reasons set out hereunder. Hon. Members, you will allow me to pause at this point although it is too early in the Communication because I acknowledge and recognize the presence of hon. ole Ntimama at the entrance."
