I am sure this is a House that legislates; 90 per cent of the laws of this country are legislated by this House and this must be a fact; in fact, 99 per cent. Today, tomorrow and the next four years, we have the opportunity to amend, to repeal and to make laws. That is why on 4th March, 2013, the people of Kenya decided to give the 349 hon. Members opportunity to do that work. Hon. Deputy Speaker, this Bill was sent to the Speaker on Thursday at 3.45 p.m., when people knew that this House was going on recess. They are lucky because we were not paid our money; we had to come back today. The idea was to send a signal that the National Assembly of Kenya is fighting devolution. That is why we have decided to take leave of the House so that we deal with this Bill at all the three stages and they will see the powers of the National Assembly in terms of reduction of publication period and everything else. So, I want to urge my colleagues, today even if it means extending the sitting of the House, we sit here and we dispose of the agenda so that our county governments get the necessary resources for this financial year. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move and ask hon. Junet Nuh to second."
