    "content": "Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I rise to oppose this amendment. The County Assembly Woman and the County Assembly Man are people who were elected. They are elected with a mandate far much greater than what the local authority leaders used to have. They, in fact, represent an assembly – not a national one, but the county one – and in that regard, they are respectable honorable people in the sense that they do exactly the same functions that the other honorable Members in the National Assembly do; they approve budgets, they consider plans and policies of the government. In my view, it would be in order to retain the title “honorable assembly man” and “honorable assembly woman” to these people because of the roles that they do in terms of oversight, representation and legislation, approving budgets and drawing up plans. In my view, I want to oppose the amendment and retain the title “honorable assembly man” and “honorable assembly woman.”"
