    "content": "If you find yourself in such a situation where CPAIC is considering the accounts without any formalized way of the assembly having their input on this particular issue, then chances are that so many issues may easily be explained away by the executive, with failure of either the resident Senator or the county assembly actually point out the Committee to the right direction that when the executive is answering is misleading to a particular extent. We have found instances where a particular road, for example, is named Road “A” to “B” using the local name. When the county executive committee member appears before CPAIC, they use the same road as Road “B” to “A”. Such things cannot be picked easily out by CPAIC. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you retire to make your consideration and guide this House on what we need to do, we may need to establish if we can find a legislative process of guiding how these matters are considered. Perhaps, start at the county assembly then bring it to the Senate formerly and say: This is what we are able to establish as an assembly and this is our verdict. The Senate Committee will then consider the matter in totality. Sen. M. Kajwang’, unless there is something that I am not aware of, there is nothing that will block you from inviting the particular county assembly public accounts committee on the day that you are listening to the accounts of that specific county. That may help to guide the process as we think about how to fill this legislative gap that exists."
