144(18)“The right of any person who has a legitimate claim to the proceeds of a security is not affected by the payment of the proceeds into the County Revenue Fund.” Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, this is basically an error. It should not have been “Parliament”. This is because Parliament should not approve borrowings by county entities. It is supposed to be “the county assemblies”.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT Clause 145 be amended by deleting subclause (1) and substituting therefor the following new subclause-

145 (1)“A county government entity may borrow money in accordance with this Act or any county legislation.” Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I would like to bring it to the attention of the House that the word “borrow” should read “lend”. A county government entity may lend and not borrow. We have already taken care of the borrowing and it is now lending. So, I want to amend further by replacing the word “borrow” with the word “lend”.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 148 be amended by inserting the following new sub clause immediately after sub clause (4)- “(5) A county government may, in order to promote efficient use of county resources, adopt, subject to approval by the county assembly, a centralized county management service.”

I draw the House’s attention that there is the word “financial” missing and instead of “service”, it should be “services”. Clause 148(5) should now read: “A County Government may, in order to promote efficient use of county resources, adopt, subject to approval by the county assembly, a centralized county financial management services.”
