Subject: MOTION ON CAPITAL PROJECTS UNDER TRANSFERRED FUNCTIONS

THAT, aware that Article 187 of the Constitution, 2010 and Section 24 of the Intergovernmental Relations Act, 2012 provides for the transfer of functions and powers from one level of Government to another; further aware that on 25th February, 2020, the Governor signed a memorandum transferring some of the County Government functions such as health services, transport services and public works services to the National Government as provided for in the Constitution which took effect from 17th March, 2020 and for twenty-four (24) months subject to renewal; acknowledging that in execution of the Transfer Deed, His Excellency the President established the Nairobi Metropolitan Services Office to spearhead the implementation of the transferred functions; concerned that the ongoing lack of consensus between the County Executive and the Nairobi Metropolitan Services on the implementation of various projects which are under the transferred functions has brought angst among some contractors who had commenced works before the transfer of functions was effected, as the County Executive is unyielding to handover some of the capital projects which are under the transferred functions to the Nairobi Metropolitan Services, this Assembly urges the Nairobi Metropolitan Services to request for all the necessary documentation from the contractors on the existing contracts on all capital projects are under the transferred functions with a view of ensuring the contractors complete the projects in timely manner and avoid stalling of such projects.
