    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity. I rise to support this Motion. I want to thank the Committee because they have done a thorough job. It also shows that Kenyans have got a good rating for these ladies and gentlemen because despite comments from the public nobody has come forward to say that these people have any integrity issues and that is very good. In the past, the Government has been indulging in businesses that can be run privately. Probably, at that time it was prudent to do that but as in this time and era, I think that should not be the business of the Government. The Government’s business is to provide an enabling environment for private sectors to thrive and that is what should be encouraged. The faster the Government stops doing business and privatises all these institutions the better for this country. The nominees from what has been presented by the Committee are fit to privatise these institutions and they will do a very good job. Therefore, we also support that Commissions and employments should reflect the face of this country. We will have to look at this nationally. We should not pick on only one presentation to complain and say that it is not fit. Looking at all these commissions and employments, we will balance and see that every community is taken care of. For now, this people fit this job and I ask everybody to support this Motion. Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for the opportunity."
