When we make this the property of counties, it means that when a county is factoring its annual budget, it will factor what goes into pension. It is not for the national Government to decide what counties must put into their pension kitty.

This Bill and the previous Bill must consider gender. That is why while the Bills appear to be similar, they are not the same. This one clearly considers gender balance or parity in terms of representation in the board. Another issue of representation particularly in the board is the employer and the employee. The employee must have a bigger say than the employer because if the employer nominated four or five members to the board then the employee only nominated only two, of course, parity is missing.

At the end of the day, the two Bills should address the workers’ pension in the county governments.

Finally, the Bill is about whether the pension is for the county workers or for Members of the County Assemblies. Hon. Wetangula said that when someone has served his nation with a lot of integrity and provided quality service, they must live throughout their lives with decency and integrity, both for themselves and for their bearers. For that reason, I support the Bill. If there is The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

attempt from Hon. Members to propose amendment, they are welcome. We should not attempt to kill a Private Member’s Bill because there was a similar Bill that preceded it.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I rise to oppose this amendment. Take for example, if the global positioning system position is 12 or 18 coordinates that are gotten through a satellite system, how would an ordinary Kenyan know the exact position of his plot or house? To make it easy, let us look at what we want in terms of data, when a Kenyan requires an identification card.
