Temporary Deputy Speaker, the other issue that we have noted is that of conflict of interest in constitutional boards which I have already alluded to. The Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Services (KEPHIS) has stayed for a long time without a Board. The Managing Director, whose term was about to expire, used every opportunity to remind the parent Ministry that he had been without a Board. Do you know what happened eventually? His term came to an end without a Board being established. The only letter that he got instructed him to hand over to a senior manager. How do you run critical institutions like that? No wonder Kenya has become a gateway of ivory. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
