    "content": "\"(2) The selection panel shall consist of — (a) one man and one woman, nominated by the Parliamentary Service Commission” Mr. Speaker, Sir, I love that. It is a new way of drafting our legislation and we are becoming more descriptive. If you have followed the journey of legislations in Parliament, on many occasions we used to just say “two members.” It is now increasingly becoming a culture where if you have two, you specify and say at least a man and a woman. I would have expected my good friend, Sen. Beth Syengo and all the women in the House would be stamping their feet because that is good progress for the womenfolk of this country. \"(b) one person nominated by the Public Service Commission; (c) one person nominated by the Political Parties Liaison Committee; (d) one person nominated by the Law Society of Kenya; and (e) two persons nominated by the Interreligious Council of Kenya.\""
