    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will be very brief. The main purpose of this Bill is the establishment of a framework and functions of the transition to county treasuries, county budget process, revenue raising measures and expenditures for county governments; responsibilities of transition county accounting officers and receivers of the revenue, prior to the establishment of the county governments. In fact, what we are saying is that this is really an omission. You are aware that we passed the Public Finance Management Act and the County Governments Bill, but we forgot to include transition clauses in those Bills. With two Acts in place, assuming that the election results are announced on the same day, it is assumed that on 12th March, 2012, when the governor assumes office, there will be county treasurer, county treasury, county secretary and somebody to swear-in the county assembly members."
