    "content": "of the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS). The Chairperson should inquire into and report to the House on the following:- (i) why an employee of Barclays Bank currently based in Uganda, who was not amongst the nine shortlisted applicants that were interviewed, was ranked the overall best applicant; (ii) why the said employee of Barclays Bank, who earns over Kshs1.4 million salary per month, ended up being interviewed and yet, all other applicants, whose salaries were above Kshs700,000, were not shortlisted; (iii) under what circumstances the name of the applicant who was ranked second- best overall was not included in the list of the three candidates presented to the Cabinet Secretary for consideration and appointment; (iv) whether the Committee could table the report by Manpower Services Limited on the recruitment exercise, the minutes of the Board of KEBS on the recruitment exercise and a report, if any, by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Committee on the applicants; and (v) confirm or deny whether there was any favouritism and discrimination during the said recruitment exercise. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
