"content": "their financial issues. That normally sabotages their day to day running of the county assembly. The independence of county assemblies will enhance their oversight role which we normally advocate for. The Bill also contains the provisions and expressions, the objectives of the principal Act. It also provides for the establishment of the county assembly revenue fund for each county. That will help them to provide for their daily activities. The Bill also contains provisions of a general nature, including how they submit their reports to the National Assembly so that some of the procedures can be checked. Madam Temporary Speaker, when you look at the current situation in our counties, you will see that very many staff have been recruited without formal procedures being followed. To some extent, some counties almost recruited twice the number they required. The situation was worse in some counties that eventually resolved to divide the salary by half so that, at least, they could cater for the extra individuals that they recruited. With those few remarks, Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support this Bill and congratulate the Senator for bringing it."
