Members may wish to note that only one name of a nominee for appointment as a member of the Commission has been forwarded as there are already three commissioners serving pursuant to the provisions of Section 58(2) of the National Gender and Equality Commission Act, 2011 which inter alia states: “Notwithstanding Section 9, the persons who are members of the former National Commission on Gender and Development who became members of the Kenya National Human Rights and Equality Commission pursuant to Section 26 of the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution shall become members of the Commission upon the commencement of this Act for their unexpired term.” Upon receipt of the names of the nominees, the National Assembly is required under Section 11(7) and (10) to consider within 21 days of the day it next sits after receipt of the names of the nominees and to approve or reject any nomination and request for names of new nominees. Hon. Members, I direct that the names and the accompanying Curriculum Vitae be forwarded to the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare for consideration. The Committee is hereby directed to table its Report thereon in the House on or before Tuesday, 8th November, 2011. I thank you."
