    "content": "“Parliament shall— (b) facilitate public participation and involvement in the legislative and other businesses of Parliament and its committees”. Pursuant to that publication, we received a number of submissions and memoranda from a number of individuals and bodies namely:- (i) The National Gender and Equality Commission, (ii) CBM, (iii) Autism Society of Kenya, (iv) National Gender for Persons with Disabilities, (v) United Disabled Persons of Kenya, (vi) Kenya Disability Parliamentary Association, (vii) Brian Resource, Training, Production and Dissemination Centre, and, (viii) The Association for Physically Disabled of Kenya. All those bodies supported the nomination and approval of Dr. Kabue as a Commissioner. However, we received two submissions in opposition. They were from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and one Mr. Lempaa Suiyanka who is an advocate. In fact, he swore an affidavit in opposition to the appointment of Dr. Kabue."
