    "content": "(Prof. Saitoti): Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wanted to make that clarification that the deployment has affected Regional Commissioners because they were in regions in the counties and including a number of senior officials in the Ministry. But the other thing that I want to say here is that the whole thing is deployment. I also want to draw the attention of the hon. Members that there are a number of provisions in the old Constitution which have so far actually been saved and one of them is Section 24. If I may read it, it says as follows: “Subject to this Constitution and any other law, the powers of constituting and abolishing offices for the Republic of Kenya or making appointment to any such office and terminating any such appointment shall vest in the President.” He, therefore, has acted administratively on that. Therefore, all these arguments if I may say so, they are all vesting onto whether this is the restructuring which has taken place or not. I have been very explicit in my own Ministerial Statement by saying the restructuring is going to start as soon as I bring the Bill here. It is already worked out."
