    "content": "County Executive Committee (CEC) member responsible for matters relating to persons with disabilities. The members of the committee shall hold office for a term of three years and shall be eligible for reappointment for a further non-renewable term of office for two years. Further, the members of the committee shall be entitled to allowances as determined by the CEC member, in consultation with the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). Madam Temporary Speaker, the Bill also proposes to review the membership of the National Council for Persons with Disabilities. This review is informed by the concerted effort by all State actors to ensure that statutory bodies are efficient, cost effective and able to deliver on the objectives for which they were established. The Bill proposes to reduce the number of people nominated for appointment to the Council by organizations for persons with disabilities, executives and the Attorney- General. The Bill proposes a further amendment to the Act whose effect shall be that “the relevant state agency shall not approve the construction of a road, building or premises if the plans for the construction do not include access for persons with disabilities”. The Bill is expected to promote the well being of persons with disabilities in the counties, to streamline the operations of the Council by reducing the number of Members and to ensure greater access by persons with disabilities to premises and other amenities. I beg to move and call upon Sen. Sijeny to second."
