Generally, there should be adequate consultations to ensure that we do not have conflicts over such resources. Article 6 of the Constitution comes in handy because it talks about the levels of government. We have the national Government and the county governments. This is a resource for the country, but it is found in various counties of this country. By right, the resource is generated in certain areas. Therefore, people in such areas must have a say, through their respective county governments, on how the resources should be administered. Article 6 of the Constitution is very important because it talks about the two levels of government being separate or distinct. They have to work together when it comes to exploration of such resources. The county governments and national Government must work hand in hand to ensure that the benefits are enjoyed by the country and locals in those areas. The citizens in those areas should enjoy the benefits and their rights should be taken into account. With those few remarks, I beg to support the Bill."
