"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, there should never be any confusion because I was very sure that I will be given an opportunity to explain the reason for this proposal. I think this being a respected House by the people of Kenya, we should also go by their feelings that they recognize this House as a major and very important House in the institution of politics in Kenya. We should also allow members of the public to participate fully according to the Constitution. The original amendment was quite in order as far as I am concerned. I supported the amendment by my colleague over there and I thought we needed to give the public the opportunity because the county government can just sit down and decide that we are going to move this county headquarters to another location without giving the public an opportunity. I am saying this because I have an experience in Laikipia County. Before I thought about the amendment, the County Government of Laikipia had sat down and passed a resolution which was sent to the Clerk of the Senate with a copy to the Speaker informing them that they would want the physical location of the headquarters of the County of Laikipia to be transferred from Nanyuki to Rumuruti."
