    "content": "The Kenya Law Reform Commission issue has taken really long. It has been hot in the last two years where there was a proposal of doing away with some of the commissioners. The Attorney-General was uncomfortable with some of the nominees or some of the people who were representing certain nominating agencies that were serving as commissioners in the Kenya Law Reform Commission. At that level, it was very vibrant and going to take this country back. Where we are at the moment, the proposals are still a problem in terms of the role of the Attorney-General, as has been mentioned. So, it is important that this is looked at afresh and a serious amendment needs to be proposed when we get to that stage. The other thing is the transition of the bodies we are talking about. This was a fundamental issue when we were looking at the Kenya Law Reform Commission at that particular time. There was a chance that some of the commissioners, if at all we did not look at what stage and for how long we were to respect what the laws currently require--- We need to be careful on how to transit from the old arrangement to the new one. This, therefore, means that we have to look at all the areas we are proposing changes in the composition and reconstitution of boards, including the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development."
