    "content": "Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC). So, the KACC had vested its powers in a director. The EACC does not have a director. Therefore, upon the repeal of the provision that established the Kenya Anti- Corruption Commission under the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Act, the functions and powers exercised by the Director now rest in the Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commissioners. The amendments that we have been asked to pass under the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill purport to harmonise the provisions of the KACC with the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission. By doing this, they are trying to vest the powers of the Commissioners on an employee of the Commission who is a secretary. How do you do this? You are creating an animal in the name of an employee of a commission and then you expect the commissioners who are appointed to be subservient to the secretary. This cannot happen."
