"content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to second this Bill. I commend Sen. Were for coming up with it. This is a Bill that supports devolution. It will ensure that services are delivered to wananachi . As a Senate, our core business is to ensure that we serve the county governments and that service delivery is effective and efficient. In representing the county governments and their interests, the common man comes in handy. The creation of an office of the Ombudsman in all the counties is a good idea. These offices will address issues of maladministration in the public sector which has been done wrongly and eventually, the common man does not get the services. There are many things that go wrong in the counties. There are instances where there are delays in getting basic identifications, for example, national identification cards (IDs) and birth certificates. These are services that should he handled at the county level so that they are not delayed. There are also times when justice is delayed in the counties. There are indefinite issues that concern what happens in the 47 counties that come to the Floor of this Senate, for example, double land allocation, delays in getting birth certificates, early pregnancies and corruption. These are some of the issues that need to be handled at the county level. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
