"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also want to ask and finalize that the Minister will look, may be through the Committee or through his officers, how else we can adapt, because I have a feeling--- You know when you see an Act of Parliament talking about a Minister, it means that the drafting of this Bill was delayed somewhere and this Bill was just taken off the shelf and brought before this House. It means that the drafting is not in consonant with the thinking of the new Constitution. It also means that this Bill was done by people who are “Nairobi centric” and are not thinking “county centric.” So, I will request that before we come to the Committee Stage that the Minister will go and look at it because this is one Bill we want to pass because it will give us advantage in the counties. Could he look at it because he will never have this opportunity again to come from Turkana and make these things? Probably, the dot.com guys who will be here might be thinking very differently. They might be people who will tell you that there are computers across the country; we are internet-connected, so we can even have these on virtual sets; we can teach people here in Nairobi and you, people, in Garsen look at that, and yet there are no virtual sets in Garsen. They will be theorizing right here in Nairobi."
