    "content": "“Provided that the Inspector-General shall, during such recruitment, appointment or promotion, take into consideration gender, county and ethnic balancing”. We were proposing an amendment in this matter to insert the clause provided that the Inspector-General, shall, during such recruitment, appointment or promotion take into consideration gender, county and ethnic balancing. The justification for this proposal is that we want this particular amendment to make this Commission which is the human resource arm of the Government as far as the police is concerned, to take into consideration these issues. During the second reading yesterday, we went through this matter and we still think that since the police will be under the rank of sergeant will be recruited by the Inspector-General, and I hope the House is paying attention, we must not let this to be loose. If we do it, the Commission might interpret it in its own way and the practice that we have been having that every time there is recruitment of police constables, they go to every county and do recruitment there, might not be compulsory if we do not make the law necessary and compulsory for the Inspector-General to do so."
