    "content": "The proposed amendment seeks to relax the restrictiveness for requirements of a Major to be promoted to the rank of “Lieutenant Colonel”. Some of the Members deliberated extensively. The in-house expertise of Hon. Members who are retired colonels and, therefore, well versed with military ranking played a major role in advising us. The interaction with the Vice-Chief of the Kenya Defence Forces gave rise to this amendment to allow for ease of movement in rank from a Major to a Lieutenant Colonel to prevent the bottleneck that is becoming apparent within the KDF. It is quite straightforward and clear."
