    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the creation of county development boards, but I will support it with amendments. What I will be asking my colleagues is how we will deal with the issue of amendments under Articles 112 and 113 of the Constitution. Hon. Members should begin looking at those articles. I remember the substantive Speaker spoke on this. There is need for a forum where all leaders elected or appointed by the national Government and at the county level can sit together and exchange views on how best to develop. We have devolution at the county level and indeed, a lot of money is going to the counties, but we have no law on how to come up with development plans. We have no law to ensure equity in terms of usage of resources across the constituencies or the wards in the county. Those can bring biases."
