    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to support this Bill. One of the suggestions we are making is that there must be harmonization done between this Bill and the County Governments Act, 2012. That is because some of the issues that are being raised by hon. Members are already covered in that Bill. However, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Bill is very clear. For instance, the guiding principles states that the national Government shall act in accordance with the national values and principles as stated in Articles 10, 189, 20, and 232. The other aspect which I think is important has to do with the powers of the president and the governor. They are to remain unaffected. There is an area we need to make an amendment so that we can take care of what we had agreed on earlier. This is Part III Clause 15(e) which talks about an Assistant Chief and inspector in every sub- location. I thought this is where we should have included (f) to take care of a village elder in respect of a village. That would make the Bill complete apart from the fact that we need to have it harmonized with the one that I have dealt with."
