    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance also to contribute to this Bill. We must look back when we began this process. What was the intention of us setting up that vetting process? When we came from the old order to the new order, Kenyans were yearning for fresh air and they wanted to weed out the rotten potatoes from all our institutions. That is why we started the process of vetting. We have seen that some of the processes that have been going on have been very successful. But some have ground to a halt. But as we grant this extension, it is in the law that they must finish that process because those who transited from the old order to the new order had to go through the process. There could be some things that need to be looked into. This goes a long way in the judicial reforms. If we try to interfere with the reforms or try to stop them midstream, then we will lose the gains we have made. So, we must safeguard what we have gained and we must also be careful not to allow too much leeway for those commissions. They must perform within the time-frame which has been set for them and also within the budgetary allocation that has been given to them so that we achieve the intended purpose of the vetting."
