Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to support this Bill because it will solve partly the problem that I have with the County Government of Isiolo. I am hoping and praying that it will be assented to before the implementation of the current project that the County Government of Isiolo has started. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have had issues with the County Government of Isiolo because they have introduced a Public Private Partnership programme for health care services without following the due process of the law. Public Private Partnership is very important and we support it as leaders in ...

If I may give an example, the County Government of Isiolo has entered into a partnership with a particular company which is a limited company by guarantee, where they are not subjected to provisions of this Bill that is being proposed. When this project came up, I really objected to it and protested because the law was not followed. In my view, this Bill will solve much of our problems because the provision is clearly pointing out the areas of concern. First, the survey is supposed to be done before entering into any partnership. However, before the survey is done, ...

Mr. Speaker Sir, in the aspect of benefit, when the agreement was presented before the County Assembly of Isiolo, the only thing that the members of the public were told is that the company was going to deal with community health workers. However, when you clearly look into that agreement, you will see that they are going to provide everything that deals with health care services in hospitals yet this company has not been subjected to public participation to establish whether they are able to carry out those services or not. We are therefore having a problem in this country ...

Another issue concerns whether PPP projects are within County Integrated Development Plans (CIDPs) or Annual Development Plans (ADPs). A good example is the petition before the Senate on whether it should have been in a CIDP or an ADP. The county government ensured that the county assembly passed that particular project but that is wrong.

We need to deal with these matters. I hope we will subject this particular Bill to public participation, especially in the rural areas where these issues happen so that we close or seal loopholes in our counties.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that The Treaty Making and Ratification (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.23 of 2018) be now read a Second Time. If I may give a bit of background to this Bill; the reason I wanted to bring this amendment is because I remember in the last Parliament, the National Assembly moved an amendment to remove the Senate from getting involved in the ratification of the treaties and obligations. That was the Treaty Making and Ratification Act No.45 of 2012. The Senate Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations struggled to summon the CS ...

country. This is important because we will understand what the countries are doing or the status of ratification in terms of various agreements and obligations that the country has gotten into. I believe that if this takes place, the counties will participate in the treaty making process. We once had a meeting with the Members of Parliament (MPs) of the East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA), and they felt that we, as a Senate, should be involved. This is because of what MPs in EALA are doing in their assemblies or sittings affects the county governments. If you witness the deliberations ...
