"content": "Hon. Members, I have a Message from the Executive on the nomination of a member to the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Board. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 42(4), I wish to report to the House that I have received a Message from the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Economic Planning regarding the nomination of a person for appointment to the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Board. In the Message, the Cabinet Secretary conveys that, in the exercise of powers conferred to him by Section 15(1)(e) of the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Act, 2015, he has nominated Hon. Gabriel Kago Mukuha as a member of the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Board. The Cabinet Secretary now seeks the approval of the nominee by the House. Standing Order 45 provides that, upon receipt of notification of a nomination for appointment, such nomination shall stand committed to the relevant Committee for consideration. In this regard, I hereby refer the Message from the Cabinet Secretary, together with the curriculum vitae and other testimonials of the nominee, to the Select Committee on National Government Constituencies Development Fund for consideration. In considering the nominee, the Committee should take note of the provisions of Section 8 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2012, which requires the National Assembly to undertake the approval exercise within 28 days. Therefore, The Committee is expected to commence the approval process and notify the nominee and the general public of the time and place for holding the approval hearings. Upon conclusion, the Committee is to table its report to enable the House to consider the matter within the statutory timelines. I thank you. Next Order."
