Peter Kaluma","speaker":null,"content":" Hon. Temporary Chairlady, this clause requires further amendments. I had signified to the Speaker that we would propose amendments to it. Whilst I support the amendments of the Committee, look at Clause 7(a) and (b). Are they necessary? You know we are a House of Parliament. We cannot be sitting to legislate against ourselves even where it is not necessary by saying a person shall not qualify for the position of Director-General if the person is a Member of Parliament or a member of the county assembly. Can one qualify if, indeed, they are a sitting Member of Parliament or a sitting MCA? 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."}
