18Com. Bishop Njoroge: Thank you very much. We want a clarification. If you say that an MP should be the Speaker of LocalAuthorites Assembly, does the MP also have to be in the National Assembly?Patrick Wainana: The arrangement, we feel, is that the Local Authority National Assembly membership should be composedof elected Councilors who would actually fit in that National Assembly. If it is the Speaker, he should actually then be a memberof the National Assembly i.e. Parliament. So that interests of the Councils are catered for.Com. Bishop Njoroge: Thank you very much Bwana Clerk. Those are very good comments. You can bring yourmemorandum. We are going to look at it. Now, ladies and gentlemen, I think many people are coming.

Bishop Njoroge: Mnakubaliana na huyo.Audience: Hapana.Com. Bishop Njoroge: Basi maoni yako haina ..….., Ikiwa una Memorandum na hutaki kuzungumza, unaweza kuenda pale.Wacha niseme hivi kwanza. What we are going to do with this memorandum is that we have people in the office, they are goingto pick all the points spoken by every individual. Na mtu akizungumza hizo points zitawekwa katika katiba lakini hizomemorandum hazitapotea. Sawa sawa. Kwa hivyo ikiwa ni wale tu ambao hawana memorandum na wanataka kuzungumzandio ninahitaji wazungumze. Asante sana. Ujiandikishe jina pale. Wale wana memorandum waende pale nje. Wale wana
