    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, while I appreciate the response from the Chairman, the policy as he has stated began in 2015. From then, the positions of chief and assistant chief, which are very important positions in Government, have been watered down completely. In places where some of us come from, very many young people have been disenfranchised. This policy that the PSC came up with is very punitive. It is anti-people; it is anti-hustlers, and it is a policy that never underwent any public participation. In my Request for a Statement, I specifically asked the Ministry whether it could consider a review. But, what it has said is that it has special circumstances where it asks for academic waivers. What if those people are not available? The Republic of Kenya is not equal. We have places where you cannot get somebody who has completed Form Four, let alone somebody who has a C Minus or a C Plain. I asked for a specific policy review because this one never underwent public participation. I ask and demand that this policy be reviewed. Otherwise, we are going to challenge it in court."
