"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I have nothing against the members of NCCK. However, I believe very strongly that when they are in the umbrella body, they will represent the interest of that sector completely. If you break it and remove two out of that basket; the Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA) and Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK), there is nothing that will stop the Evangelical Association of Kenya (EAK) from saying, \"can we also have our two most important members in this Committee\". So, why should we go into a ditch for no reason? Why should we get into a problem for no reason? Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, mine is to plead for fairness and equity in representation. I agree, the Minister has said it is broad in representation. It takes care of other interests. But maybe by removing the two, we will even make the Committee even more broad. We will be bringing in other institutions which are not here already and still remain with the figure of 30. November 4, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3257"
