    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to point out that this law also makes it very clear that planning must be enforced in urban areas and cities. If you look at Part V, you will find that we have integrated development planning. This is very important because what has been happening over the years is that the current city or urban area managers have not been taking the issue of development planning very seriously. We are now making it a legal requirement to make sure that these plans are in place. We have tried to seal all the loopholes but naturally, no human being is perfect. That is why the Bill is here for hon. Members to enrich it even further. I want to state that this is just one of the pieces of legislation that is supposed to support devolution. Once the main devolution Bill is cleared, it shall be brought here and Members will deliberate on it. There are issues that will relate to the financial management of county governments and that again will be coming within the context of the Public Finance Management Bill when it is brought to this House. As a requirement, this is the one that was supposed to be in place within the first year from the date of the promulgation of the Constitution."
