"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, first, I congratulate my friend, Sen. Lesuuda, for coming up with such an important Bill. Many people refuse or forget that the Constitution is very specific on Part 2 of the Fourth Schedule, that statistics matters are county matters. This was not by accident. Part 2, Paragraph 8 of the Constitution says:- “County planning and development, including – (a) Statistics; (b) land survey and mapping; (c) boundaries and fencing; (d) housing; and (e) electricity and gas reticulation and energy regulation.” So, the context within which statistics is represented in the Constitution is under county planning and development. You cannot tell me that we will continue planning and pursuing development in the county when statistics is not an integral part of that planning and development. It is very clear from the submissions of Sen. Lesuuda and those of the Seconder, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., that there is a lot that needs to be done when it comes to The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
