    "content": "Lastly, our primary responsibility is to oversight and to ensure the welfare of counties. You cannot defend or even ensure what you do not fully understand. So, Senators need adequate time to evaluate their counties’ performance and engage with their respective county governments, the Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) and even to spend time with the county executives, to consider the various pieces of legislation also that are being passed at the county level. This will enable every Senator to relate those pieces of legislation with what we pass in this House and know where the connection point is, so that when they come back they can defend what they fully understand. We have had to deal with various issues of misappropriation, complaints and even impeachment Motions. Every Senator in this House needs time to engage effectively with their MCAs so that they are able, when we come back, to legislate effectively, especially on matters that affect their counties. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to second."
