    "content": "On the issue of active politics, I want Members to note that immediately after the passage of this Bill, there shall be regulations. In the regulations, we are going to outline those barometers used to measure active politics. There are cases of my colleagues in this House and in this current Parliament who already have problems with directors of the board. There are directors of boards who are participating in active politics. There was a case in Migori County of a director of a board who was very active in politics. This amendment is just to enable the Board and Members of Parliament do their jobs. This will prevent a board member from going down to the constituencies and behaving as though he is the one bringing money to the constituency. This is a very important amendment and I request Hon. Members to support it."
