    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I have listened very carefully to my learned friend, hon. Nyokabi, but I would like to bring to her attention, and other county women Members of Parliament that I support the amendment by hon. Shebesh; but I am wondering whether they understand the import of that amendment. Before I proceed to give my views; it is going to be difficult for the County Members of Parliament to make appointments under Regulation 15. They need to understand that role and be part of it. A request has been with the Committee on Delegated Legislation that we increase for them the number of persons that they would want to appoint; but if you read the phraseology of Regulation 13, which hon. Shebesh is proposing to amend, it takes away that role. If you look at Regulation 13 that has not been amended, it makes the County Members patrons, and gives them the role of doing all the things shown under Regulation 13. The proposal that hon. Shebesh is making is taking away the cardinal role of the County Members. So, unless they do not understand the import, I am happy to support, but I will be very dishonest to myself if I support this amendment without a further amendment. With your permission, I propose a further amendment to Regulation 13---"
