    "content": "Thank you, Hon. (Dr) Oundo. It is not even within the jurisdiction of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs anymore. They finished their work. The matter came to the Commission. It is recommending authority for appointment. We have the nominating bodies. Law Society of Kenya (LSK) and Parliament, through Parliamentary Service Commission, nominated panelists. Religious bodies and Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) nominated panelists. Then, we came to the Political Parties Liaison Committee which your party and the party across the Floor belong. The third arm are parties unrepresented in this House. They have been playing ping-pong in court until today. I even wrote a letter to His Excellency the President advising him to gazette the panel. Before the letter left my Office to the Office of the President, there was a court order by two people called Muli - male and female. They are the ones who are fighting in court. There is a judgement coming tomorrow or Monday. If those orders are discharged, His Excellency the President will gazette the panel the next day, once it is gazetted, we will move in earnest to ensure that they advertise, they get the long list, reduce it to the short list, interview and bring forward the names to this House for approval. It is dangerous for the country to go without an IEBC. I agree with you. Hon. Shinali."
