"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wish to join the Members in congratulating the Minister. There is a Bill published for vetting that had been proposed by hon. Mungatana. That Bill needs to be either taken up by the Minister or in conjunction with the Member, it needs a lot of effort for us to work seriously on that issue that hon. Wetangula pointed out. In the other jurisdictions, this matter is very well regulated. Allegations against people who are aspiring for high office are not brought to any Committee until investigations are conducted about those allegations, so that they do not come to the public light if they are not of any substance. It is very critical that we develop those standards, so that we have a fair and adequate vetting procedure. It cannot be lynching and certainly it should not be a black spot. On the second issue, you will now note that there is no Bill on the constitution implementation process before Parliament. We will have cleared with the last one this evening if we will be through with these proceedings in a few minutes time. It is now up to the Executive and the those other institutions, namely, the Attorney-Generalâs office, the Kenya Law Reform Commission and the Commission on the Implementation of the Constitution, especially the CIC and the Attorney-Generalâs office, to move with speed, so that this House can implement this process and enact these laws. I beg to support."
