    "content": "Hon. Temporary deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, New Clause 11(C) be further amendment in sub-clause (1) by inserting the words “and Secretary to the Board” at the end of paragraph (e) This recomital is very simple. It tries to clean up what the Chair has done. They have done a lot of work. If you look at the Bill as it is, you will see that they have proposed several members to the Board. On oversight, they have not assigned any of these people the duty of being the Secretary to the Board. Before it was assumed that the Director-General is always the Secretary to the Board. Even in those circumstances, those pieces of legislation clearly spelt out that the Director-General will be the Secretary to the Board. I am reminded about the Mwongozo Code which is part of the working manual in this sub-sector. It says that the Corporation Secretary, therefore, becomes the Secretary to the Board. I know that the Leader of the Majority Party wants me to declare my interest which is not very difficult for me to do. Even if my wife is working there, she is a Kenyan. She also happens to be a voter in Ruaraka Constituency. So, I am working here for the people of Ruaraka. If I am working for my wife, I am working for the people of Ruaraka. Yes, this is on HANSARD. She is a registered voter in Ruaraka Constituency and I am working for the people of that constituency. There is nothing wrong in working for the people of Ruaraka Constituency. In any case, who does not want somebody to have a job? Anyway, what I am saying ---"
