    "content": "Hon. Members, really let us not belabour that point. If you look at the report on page 5, this report before us is coming to the House pursuant to the communication that was given by the Speaker on 17th September, 2013 which says: “We inform the House that Principal Secretary for the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government vide letter dated 20th August, 2013 had communicated that the National Police Service Commission had nominated James Muhoro as its representative in the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC).” So, subsequently the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade was directed to conduct approval hearings pursuant to Article 118 of the Constitution. So, they are just fulfilling a requirement that was already constitutional. The SRC was not fully constituted because this member had to be nominated by the National Police Service Commission. On the question of Kinyua or the other names that you have cited, they are not there. We do not even vet them because they are there by virtue of their offices. They can be substituted by any names because they are representing the institutions. It is not them as persons that are included in that list. So, hon. Members, let us not pursue that line of argument anymore. I think we have sufficiently cleared and we need to move on. Hon. Linturi, I remember you were burning with some point of order."
