    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the import of this amendment as I have said earlier, was that the National Assembly amendment particularly on the health sector was for a gradual transfer of functions based on the capacities of the county governments. More so, it is about Level 5 hospitals. That as counties build capacities to handle Level 5 hospitals, the Transition Authority must use that. The Senate has said that the National Assembly has no such powers. That they cannot deal with county matters. That is why we are saying we reject it. Let it go to a mediation team from both Houses so that our mediation team can convince the Senate mediation team that will be appointed so that we agree on this. What the National Assembly was only saying was that let us not just transfer functions one morning, let us follow the Constitution that we transfer gradually. Still, there are functions which the Transition Authority has not transferred. That was the import of this amendment. We agreed with the Senate on all the amendments but we rejected this and another one. I do not whether it has been disposed of."
