    "content": "Much obliged. Artcle 93 of our Constitution creates a bicameral parliament. Article 110(3) states: “Before either House considers a Bill, the Speakers of the National Assembly and Senate shall jointly, resolve any question as to whether it is a Bill concerning counties and, if it is, whether it is a special or an ordinary Bill.” Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would like to request your considered ruling or revelation from the Chair on whether the question---The question has arisen from the Senate that this Bill concerns counties. The Constitution that we swore to defend requires that before we proceed on this Bill, the Speakers of the Senate and National Assembly shall present to us and say that they have agreed. This is not my creation; this is what is stated in the Constitution that I, as Member of Parliament for Homa Bay County swore to defend on the Floor of this House. I am just presenting the position. I am of the opinion that there is a disease that has crept on this side called “Ideopenia” which is a severe bankruptcy of ideas. Thank you."
