"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to start by thanking the Minister who moved this Bill for all the comments he made. I also want to thank the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government who has seconded this Bill for all the comments that they made. I would, first of all, want to join the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government in urging hon. Members of the House to be very careful about this Bill. He has quoted the history correctly and said that the majimbo governments were killed through starvation of funds from the central Government. The attitude in Treasury, contrary to what the Minister has said, has not really changed. The intention to control from the centre is very much there and this is why I am asking hon. Members to be very careful about the nitty gritty of this Bill. Let us bring as many amendments as will be necessary to protect the existence of county governments."
