"content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I have listened to the Hon. Members, including Hon. (Dr.) Nyikal and the other Members who contributed in this House. Hon. Nyikal talked about the rushed debate. I think this is not an issue to do with the Presidency. The President can appoint anyone at any time. What we need to do in future is to allocate enough time for this vetting process. We can do it for three to five days, so that we have ample time to look at all these nominees properly. The other issue that Hon. Nyikal talked about is that we should not look at technical issues and competency, but ethics and integrity of the nominees. I do agree, but on the same token as I had said before, the issue of us writing to EACC is not the best. This is because once you write to the EACC, you are only talking about allegations people have against specific nominees. We need to go a notch higher and instead of writing to EACC, we write to the Director of Public The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
