"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for this opportunity. When I listen to Members making contribution to this Motion, we need to ask ourselves: Why is it that the National Assembly as per the Constitution, 2010 given an opportunity to vet all nominees nominated by the President of the Republic of Kenya? Listening to some of the arguments, there are people who are of the opinion that the President should probably, just appoint, and the persons appointed would just proceed to their respective offices; or people just send their curriculum vitae and they just get appointed like that. The vetting process should give this House an opportunity to go through the credentials and abilities of these Members so that we can make an opinion. We cannot say we are wrong or right. we are expressing an opinion which is what the Constitution envisages. This House must also reach that point where we can stamp our authority. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
