    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 18 of the Bill be amended— (a) in sub-clause (4) by inserting the words “in consultation with county governments” immediately after the words “The national government.” (b) in sub-clause (6) by inserting the words “in consultation with county governments” immediately after the words “The Cabinet Secretary.” (c) in sub-clause (7) by inserting the words “in consultation with county governments” immediately after the words “The Cabinet Secretary. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, we have already made an amendment which requires that the national Government consults with the county government. For clarity, the courts already held that consultation means that there must be agreement. You saw that in the Grand Coalition Government. The President was required to agree with the Prime Minister. The words used “to consult the Prime Minister” were read out by the court to mean that there must be concurrence agreement between the two principals. That is the legal interpretation as held by the court."
