    "content": "Looking at the proposed board, it has been taken over by the Principal Secretary, Ministry of Interior and Co-ordination of National Government. You wonder whether those people have the ability to run the Board. I expected the institution to comprise of more members from the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), which is more active - and the private sector - rather than having half of the membership from the Government. Many organisations like this one have been established. For example, there is the one which deals with prisoners under the Attorney- General, and which has not been operationalised. It is there, but it has no activities. I urge Members to look into those issues, so that we can come up with a good Bill. The Bill provides that the headquarters of the organization will be in Nairobi and they may decide to set up offices in other areas. People who are marginalised are not found in Nairobi, but in the counties, constituencies and wards. For this to be effective, the Bill has to be very clear and specific that the offices will be in the counties of the Republic in Kenya. That way, we can reach as many people as possible.
