    "content": "On the issue of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), I know now we are having challenges in the reconstitution of the IEBC. I remember we were somewhere where we were overseeing the selection panel of IEBC. They were supposed to recruit commissioners, but because of the National Dialogue Committee (NADCO) report, we were told to wait. However, are you realizing that the number of wards and constituencies like Banisa and the rest do not have Members of Parliament? Therefore, where do we disfranchise? Do we dis-represent? Those are some of the challenges that we, as a House, need look into. Clauses 23 and 24 provide that the IEBC should have one commissioner. If we were to pass this law and the President has appointed the Chair under Clause 24, where will this commissioner come from if the IEBC at the moment is not constituted? We are waiting for the NADCO report to be implemented. I am happy there is the Principal Secretary of the National Land Commission representing fiscal planning, PS License Surveyor, another of secretaries and practising advocates. Additionally, qualifications, conduct and removal from are obvious. On inquiry, that is what I want to react on. The second last point of the clause provides that- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
