    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Authority will also enter into collaboration with all other organizations within or outside Kenya, for it to be in a position to further its mandate and achieve its objective. Others are just functions or powers that any State corporation in Kenya is entitled to do. It will have members of the board, chairperson and board of directors who will be appointed by the Minister responsible for matters relating to drought management as well as the Minister responsible for matters relating to finance. It will have four other directors appointed by the Cabinet Secretary with the approval of Parliament. The qualification of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), as well as the directors, is like those of any other members of a State corporation. He should be well trained, versed, experienced and have the necessary academic qualifications. Of course, as directors of the corporation, they will formulate policies to achieve its mandate.

Finally, it will also undertake activities, as may be necessary, for the discharge of its functions and powers as the board of directors of this State corporation."
