    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. I want to support the amendment by the Vice- Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. It is impossible to establish branches in every county given that the country is already struggling with a huge wage bill. It is also important that access to legal aid be taken closer to the people because that is one of the reasons for devolution. Given the fact that the Vice-Chair has talked of progressive establishment of offices in the counties, there should be a policy where some regions can access the services at certain points without necessarily saying that every county should have an office. The service must be accessible. The Member for Narok South has given the example of people from North Eastern and pastoralist areas. For instance, it is very far for someone to travel all the way from North Horr to Meru. They need to come up with a policy for easy access to this service."
