    "content": "Section 6(9) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act No. 33 of 2011. The memoranda were to be received on or before 24th January 2022. Hon. Speaker, I wish to inform the House that at the close of the submission deadline, the Committee had not received any memoranda for or against the nominee’s suitability. Following those directions, the nominee appeared before the Committee on Thursday 27th January 2022 for vetting. The Committee examined her suitability based on the criteria set out in Section 7 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act 33 of 2011. In addition to that, the Committee examined her academic credentials, relevant experience, knowledge of sector issues and leadership and integrity. The Committee paid due regard to the procedure used to arrive at the nominee and any other constitutional or statutory requirements relating to the office in question and suitability of the nominee for the appointment proposed, having regard to whether the nominee’s abilities, experience and qualities met the needs of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). ` Hon. Speaker, I wish to submit that the nominee has work experience of over 24 years, having worked both in the private and public sector. She is currently serving as a Senior Director of Communication in the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government. Her experience in the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government would be invaluable to the National Police Service which she will be representing at the SRC. She is aware of and familiar with the welfare issues faced and suffered by the police officers in the country. This will enable her to be a good champion of the National Police Service in the SRC. Further, her experience in communication will play a big role in improving SRC’s communication strategy and in turn improve the commission’s relationship with its stakeholders."
