"content": "professionalism and the expertise offered by an independent Commission which is best positioned to speak into personnel matters and development of human resource. Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I know Sen. Prof. Tom Ojienda, SC has already spoken to the kind of balance that has been achieved by the proposed Selection Panel. We have the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) which is made up of partly elected Members proposed into it. So, it offers the political class an opportunity to propose members. The Public Service Commission (PSC) is the one entrusted by Kenyans under the Constitution, to handle matters professionally on human resource. If you look at PPLC, it gives the contending parties in the political sphere an opportunity to select members into the panel. The proposal to have one person from LSK gives Kenyans an opportunity to have a representative who is coming from a watchdog institution in Kenya. This covers both the public and private. We then have the one man and one woman nominated by the IRCK. Should I call that the moderating panel? It is the sober panel that will look at both ends of the coin and give a balanced perspective. Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I rise to oppose the proposal by Sen. Mumma, suggesting that we remove the Public Service Commission (PSC). I support the proposal for amendments from the National Assembly as it is."
