    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I have seen that there is a provision in Section 7 to have representation in the Board from the Inter-Governmental Relations Authority (IGRA). The people who know the state of our roads in this country is none other the governors themselves. If you read this Bill, there is a provision for agreements between the county governments and these authorities on constructions of roads in counties. Therefore, the right people to sit in any of these Boards should be the Council of Governors (CoG) and not the IGRA. This is because the governors are the ones who are on the ground, doing the implementation of roads and can engage the national Government. So, in terms of representation, we are getting it wrong when we want to give these slots to the IGRA 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."
