    "content": "I support this Bill because it elucidates what happens after elections. The Commission will have one year to review the operations and make any necessary changes required to make the operations for the next elections more efficient, effective, transparent and accountable. Even as they do that, they will bring it to Parliament to look into it and make it better for future elections. It is exciting when you have it captured in law, that once an election is done, you can review it. Hon. Temporary Speaker, let me capture the last and most important issue of the Chief Executive Officer or the secretary of the IEBC. I tend to disagree that we have a three-year term. In my view, I propose that we have a six or nine-years term renewable so that once an officer is there, he or she is certain that he cannot make decisions that are only futuristic. I feel this is an amendment that needs to be done."
