"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting clause 5 and substituting therefor the following new clause – (1) An advertisement inviting applications for nomination for appointment to an office to which this Act applies shall specify that the candidate shall be required to appear before a committee of the relevant County Assembly. (2) An applicant shall not be required to appear before the committee of a County Assembly pursuant to a notice issued under subsection (1) within a period of less than twenty-one days. Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, the rationale is that Clause 5 as currently provided for in the Bill appears to imply that a candidate who has been nominated for a public appointment is required to appear twice before the same vetting committee of the county assembly. First, 21 days prior to the date set for the vetting as per Clause 5 and, secondly, on the date indicated to them by the clerk of the county assembly for the approval hearing as per Clause 7. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
