    "content": "The Senate proposed that Clause 8 of the Bill be amended in sub-clause (1) by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (d)- (da) one person who shall be nominated by the Council of County Governors. On this one, we agreed with the Senate on the basis that drought or disaster management is a function shared by both the county governments and the national Government. It is clearly stated under the functions of the national Government and county governments. On that ground, we agreed with the Senate and it is important that the CoG should have one of their own in the Board of the National Drought Management Authority so that the interests of county governments as per issues of drought management are well catered for. The last amendment is just an issue of numbering in sub-clause (5) by inserting the words “and (1) (da)” immediately after the words “subsection (1)(d)”. This is basically to have paragraph (1)(da) because of the new director who will represent the CoG. It is purely about numbering and sequencing."
