"content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I support this Bill because it gives opportunity for a systematic approach to the implementation of Chapter Six on integrity and eventually provision of rights to Kenyans, especially by allowing public participation. This is very important. In the time we have been implementing activities of the county governments, we have witnessed a lot of shortcuts, under-deals and corruption. It is important that we have a framework that will deal specifically with the issue of appointments of Kenyans to specific roles in management of county governments. It is also important for us to support this because it will give sense to the wishes and provisions that are provided for in the Constitution. It is better, therefore, for us to scrutinise every provision and clause here to make sure that it gives the wider space for public participation, wider space for youth, women, men participation and a cross-section of the vulnerable people, especially the disabled.
