    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, I join my colleagues in supporting this Statement. Article 230(5)(d) of the Constitution is clear on the benchmark of SRC in the performance of its function. It states: - ‘‘In performing its functions, the Commission shall take the following principles into account- (d) transparency and fairness.” SRC has been conducting this process and gazetting changes when Parliament is not in session. This Gazette Notice was released a week before the General Election and they did the same thing in 2017. This is unfair. There is no transparency because Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) and the county assemblies were not consulted. I am sure that they did not also consult the Public Service Commission. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I request the Committee to declare that Gazette Notice unconstitutional and have SRC disbanded for violating the Constitution."
