    "content": "Kilonzo Jnr., mention that, at a certain point, the Government Printer was held under the behest of the Executive. If you look at the definition of the word ‘Gazette’ in Clause 2 under the Interpretation and General Provisions Act (Cap 2), it states that- “the Gazette” means the Kenya Gazette published by authority of the Government of Kenya, and includes any supplement thereto;” Of course, the Government is therein also defined to mean the Government of Kenya. For our own purposes, we know that there are two tiers of the government with the new constitutional dispensation of 2010. Therefore, there is no doubt that this Bill is within the purview of the county government functions. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, once again, I refer to a very interesting section – Section 2 of the Interpretation and General Provisions Act (Cap 2), where the Government Printer is defined, but it is not defined in this Bill by Sen. Were. The Government Printer is defined to mean- “the Government Printer of Kenya, and any other printer authorized by or on behalf of the President to print any written law or other documents of the Government;” If you look at that, this is the elephant in the room, because the Executive’s permission was required before any publication was done."
