    "content": "First, to commend you for giving guidance and clarity on the matter and especially as a wake-up call to the very many county assemblies that use taxpayers’ money to consider a matter and then they sit on their decision. It is important to know that right now the matter is still pending because of default of communication by the speakers. Secondly, I commend you and the Speaker of the Senate for giving those guidelines because, indeed, it was a gap. However, I wanted to invite your further consideration of a very small matter. Obviously we are going to get the benefit of the full text of your Communication, but I heard you say that upon expiry of the period (the period here usually will be 90 days). Hon. Speaker, I would want to urge you to consult again with the Speaker of the Senate and give a further consideration and a further communication on the question of whether if 24 counties have already given their decision and supposing it is in the affirmative, whether it is necessary to wait for the full 90 days and yet the threshold would have been met. That means waiting for a full three months when they could have made the decision within seven days."
