Members, Standing Order No.45 requires that, upon receipt of notification of nomination for appointment, such nomination shall stand committed to the relevant Departmental Committee of the House for consideration. Pursuant to the provisions of the same Standing Order and paragraph 3 of Standing Order No.42, I hereby refer the Message from His Excellency the President to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs to undertake the necessary approval or hearings. Hon. Members, Section 11(7) of the KNCHR Act, 2011, requires the National Assembly to either approve or reject the nominees to the respective positions within 21 days. In this regard, I wish to guide the Committee and the House as follows:- The Committee should notify the nominees and the general public on the time and place for holding the approval hearings in good time. Notification should therefore be made on Friday 14th February, 2014. The Committee may thereafter commence the necessary approval hearings from 20th February, 2014 and submit their Report to this House on or before 27th February, 2014. I thank you."
