"content": "I have with Hon. Mbadi on the position of Article 114 in as far as that Bill on Retirement Benefits is concerned. If hon. Wamalwa and other Hon. Members read the reasons why the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operatives has given in replacing the A-G with somebody from the Council of Governors, it makes sense. Those two positions are not at par. The A-G sits in certain boards to give legal advice on behalf of the whole country. In most boards, the A-G or his representative have substantive positions. I also see the sense that you cannot just remove the A-G and replace with an entity or a person from the Council of Governors. Of course, this matter is also devolved. A position for the county government is already there, but the expertise of the A-G in any substantive representation cannot be replaced by anybody like that. I read and I agree. Let us not be scared but rather, let us support the amendment of the Committee and form a mediation team. I will be very happy from the Jubilee side to nominate Hon. Wamalwa to be number one in the mediation team since he is the owner of the Bill and he can argue his case. I beg to support the Committee and oppose the Senate amendments particularly on Clause 10."
