"content": "On the other hand, and I know most of the Members have experienced this, when we have a committee or board conducting interviews to try and give opportunities that are very scarce to Kenyans, where many of them are qualified in this respect, they take leave to discuss how they will distribute those positions. We have seen this happen in this House. They discuss how to distribute those positions but not based on any credentials or qualifications, or forms of equity. They distribute them according to their interest. To what extent does this Bill cure that mischief because it happens almost every day? Disclosure of conflict of interest is a requirement as per the Kenyan Laws. I want to refer to the example I have given and declare that before the meeting commences, disclosure should always be acquired and registered. People only say that they will leave when you are interviewing a particular person. That is considered to be good enough. The discussions and sharing of positions that follow is that conflict of interest, corruption or misuse of offices of position?"
