    "content": "If you read Section 91 of the County Government Act, it says that the Governor shall provide a conducive environment in order to streamline development. We have seen duplication of development at the county level. In a constituency, the Member of Parliament allocates resources to one project and at the same time, it is allocated resources again by the county government, instead of those resources being channeled elsewhere. If we pass this legislation, it will sort out the problem of duplication of resources and provide seamless development. With regard to the issue of flying the flag, if you read Section 4 of the County Government Act, it talks about the county flags and emblems. I think the governor is a symbol of the county government. Section 4(4) states that the county government symbol should not resemble in any way the national symbol. For the governors to go to court to demand that they fly the flag, it is completely in contravention of their own Act. I support this Report."
