"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I stand to support the position of the Committee on these draft regulations. It is a little bit discouraging and worrying why an institution like the IEBC, which has been in existence for some time, could decide to ignore the procedures and timing for submission of the changes that they intended to have to ensure that the 2022 elections are conducted smoothly. The IEBC is not the only organisation that finds itself in this quagmire. We have had several government institutions, including the National Treasury, which holds a big portfolio in the running of this country, submitting documents to Committees very late. I am happy with what the Committee did. I hope that the IEBC can learn to do its work in good time in future to ensure that Kenyans are not denied best election practices. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
