    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, there is a Bill that is being sponsored by Sen. Were – I stand corrected if I am wrong – on the issue of the County Printer. We now want to make work easier, because if, for example, Elgeyo-Marakwet County Assembly wants to put a gazette notice maybe on the laws that they are passing, they must come to the national Government Printer. The same is true for all other counties, all the way from Kisumu, Nandi to Mandera. Therefore, when the county printer is available and when we have the county gazette, it will even be more accessible. Madam Temporary Speaker, even for Members of Parliament (MPs) and Senators, it is not easy to get the Kenya Gazette. You can, therefore, imagine somebody in Riat, which is somewhere in Kisumu; or in Homa Bay, where my good brother, Sen. M. Kajwang' comes from; or somewhere in Rusinga Islands. The Kenya Gazette notice can get there, but if it was somewhere in Homa Bay, it is better. We know that our citizens are sharp and if they are interested in a matter, they will go to Kisumu City to get a copy. In fact, sometimes we blame our counties for not doing effective public participation, but they do not exploit opportunities that the law has given them. Therefore, the notice is very important."
