    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to support the Senate Amendments to the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Bill of 2014. I really want to commend the Senate for proposing some very substantive amendments according to me. Among all the amendments, I want to focus on just three. By ensuring that the county-based contractors will be given special preference up to a minimum of 25 per cent for all contracts within the county, that is the way to go. Devolution is about devolving resources and ensuring that we build all our 47 counties. This will go a long way in ensuring that all our 47 counties grow. I hope that the people making decisions at the county level will not just limit it to the minimum of 25 per cent; rather they should even go further and ensure that more and more contractors in our counties get opportunities to build our counties and the nation at large."
