    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, the Schedule deals with the oath of secrecy that would be administered to elections and returning officers. The current Elections Act only allows magistrates and Commissioners of oath to administer these oaths. In the past, it was done by the Commissioners and returning officers. The reason I am bringing this amendment is that in the budget of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC), they budgeted to pay these commissioners of oath Kshs135 million for a job that can be done internally and cost the taxpayer nothing. So, I am, therefore, proposing that this oath can be given by a member of the Commission, secretary or returning officer instead of costing the taxpayer any money."
