    "content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Madam Temporary Speaker, I was saying that we are doing well although not so well especially in the County Government (Amendment) Bill which was sponsored by Sen. Sang. We retrieved it from the cupboards and it is now in the process of being assented to. We hope that it will be assented to. We have advised that it be assented to. With regard to the Division of Revenue Bill - I am briefed by Senators who have been representing us in the Mediation Team - that we are getting it finalised in the way that respects the authority and legislative space of this Senate. However, with regard to other Bills that do not fall under the emerging development, the only way is through a court process. There is no other way of dealing with this including the contentious Bill on The National Flags Emblems and Names Act. Let me wind up my submission by saying that for a long time, we have “scape- goated” and given excuses on why certain things cannot be done.

One way of doing this is to say that county governments should not give us The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
