    "content": "Similarly, the question of infrastructure is also very important. We have suffered greatly since Independence for lack of proper infrastructure, particularly the roads to enable the movement of goods and services. Therefore, to just transfer things without elaborate plans, will aggravate the situation. Therefore, the Senate urges the Government that it should be done in a very well organized proportion, so that the counties do not fail as a result of heaping a lot of responsibilities on them which they might not be able to undertake, particularly when it comes to staffing. The counties can only be agents of the central Government. I am saying this because employment of teachers is usually a big problem for the nation. Even the national Government is not able to meet all the required levels. So, to leave that responsibility to the county Government will make the situation worse than before. There are teachers who have worked with the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). If they reach their retirement, or if they die, they should be paid pension and gratuity. If counties will not have enough resources then all these cannot be met. This will kill the morale of teachers who will be transferred to the county governments. With those few remarks, I support with the recommendation that we envisage the duties that the national Government will undertake."
