The Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) team has proposed the retention of the 47 counties and called on them to consider forming regional blocs.

This is a setback to the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) party which had proposed repealing of County Governments Act 2012, to be replaced with Devolved Governments Act and Regional Public Service Boards Act.
