    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 19 be amended by deleting subclause (1) and substituting therefor the following new subclause— (1) The Cabinet Secretary shall, through the Authority, oversee management of existing and new national or public schemes, except those under county governments, and particularly storage dams, intake, main and secondary systems as necessary. The rationale for this, one, is to conform with the distribution of functions as provided for in the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution and the provisions of Article 6(2) that that is a function given to the CS. Two, the CS, having appointed the board of the authority, ceases to exercise direct management over the schemes. Subsequently, the CS can only exercise oversight in the management of the schemes. So we are saying that that is a function of the CS, but the moment he appoints the board, direct day-to-day management of the authority lies with the board. Hence his function just becomes that of oversight. So I really wanted to clean that in line with the Constitution. I am sure the Chair will agree with me."
