"content": "Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 6 of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new subclause immediately after subclause (1) – (1A) An appointing authority shall, in issuing a notice under subsection (1), notify the members of the public on the proposed nomination through such media and platforms established under section 91 of the County Governments Act as it considers appropriate. Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, the new provision seeks to ensure that there is public participation in the process. We need to engage the public in this process using the mechanisms for public participation that may be established by a county government pursuant to Section 91 of the County Governments Act. It is expected that involving the public through such mechanisms would ensure that the information regarding the approval hearing reaches as many members of the public as possible and that they have adequate time to submit their statements contesting the suitability of a candidate in good time. Subclause 1(A) seeks to make the process of engaging the public more meaningful."
