    "content": "procurement and the rest. What we know is that some of these officers have, because of disagreements with the executive, left their offices and gone back to the Ministries. Most of the governors, as we all know, have never worked in the civil service. They do not even know anything about procurement. Therefore, the best that the Transition Authority can do is to assist them in their roles by taking them through an induction course or seminar for three or four days. They should have been taken to the Kenya School of Government (KSG) and stayed there for one month. They can be taught what to do and what not to do in order for devolution to take root in just three days. I think that is what is missing. Secondly, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, since this House is responsible for overseeing what is happening in the county governments, I want to request the TA or the National Treasury to send a circular to tell the county assemblies what their role is and what their role is not. The governors also should be told what their role is and what their role is not. We know that even an established government occasionally will try to interfere with the law makers because some of these go through the executive. An alteration like this can happen if people are not very careful by noticing what is happening. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to support this Motion and look forward to the Senate following it up to its logical conclusion. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
