Their different views were pulling in one direction depending on where they belonged. Therefore during public participation we realised that unless this House stands and makes laws for posterity, we are going to have problems. Currently, the council of governors is asking why the National Assembly and the Senate are pushing them into a scheme they do not want. As I finish, I want to say that in the Committee of the whole House we have the option of amending this Bill so that it stands for one side of the Government. In its own original form, this Bill is indicating that it is for the staff and officers of county governments. We can actually amend to suit what the Governors need, that is, the county government executive and its officers. We still have an option of amending the other one in the Senate for the officers and staff of county assemblies then we finish all these, and we become a midwife. That is how we are supposed to behave as a House which is responsible to make laws and deal with all the squabbles in the country. I want to support this Bill which was brought by Hon. Njagagua and say that our Committee has proposed several amendments which we will be moving at the Committee of the whole House. Depending on the consultations which will go on, we can amend it to be in line with what we want to do in this House to bring harmony in the county assemblies and county executive. Having said that, I beg to second."
