    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, maybe 100 years from now, we can merge them into one, once we will have dealt with those issues. It is true that some of these democracies may of late have been merging these commissions, but they have a reached a stage in their development whereby they can afford to merge their commissions; they have the necessary institutions and laws in place to accommodate all the interests, even under one commission. I do not think we are there yet. That is why we are making provisions for women to be in this Parliament, and in our proposed Senate. We have even made a mandatory provision that one-third of any State appointments should be of either gender. We are doing this deliberately because we know the gender issues are yet to be realized in this country. That is why, I think, it is very important for us to have this independent gender commission, and not a department within the Kenya National Human Rights Commission."
