    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that there are 13 vacant administrative units in Marsabit North (Chalbi) and North Horr districts and not 15 as the hon. Member has stated. There are five vacancies for chiefs and eight for assistant chiefs. Six of the vacancies have not been filled because they are effectively new administrative units, having been created in July, this year. The other six have been advertised but postponed twice due to the fact that a good number of potential candidates did not meet the minimum qualifications for shortlisting. Applications are now being received and interviews will be held soon. It is true that Galasa Location fell vacant in December 2005 following the retirement of the then chief, Mr. Guyo Huka Isako. I have noted that there was undue delay in advertising for this position and I will take action against the concerned officers. Galasa Location has now been re-advertised vide our September, 2010 advertisement and interviews will be conducted early next month. (b) The vacancies have been advertised and will be filled once the selection and the recruitment process is completed."
