Updated Thu, November 24th 2016 at 13:30 GMT +3Senators have threatened to suspend dealing with Bills forwarded to them by the National Assembly. The threat comes after the National Assembly rejected Senate's attempt to control a Sh1 billion county oversight fund. But yesterday, senators dismissed the claim that the regulations were illegal, claiming that the rejection was part of a long supremacy battle with the National Assembly. The senators said that the pilferage in counties currently being witnessed would be placed under check if the senators were facilitated in their oversight duties. Deputy Speaker Kembi Gitura also dismissed claims by the National Assembly that the regulations were legally wanting.
