    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I know there are Members, especially Sen. Olekina who also want to contribute. A final thought is under Section 21(1), where they have set the implementing provisions that the CPSB should aspire to have. Among the values that they are supposed to aspire to, as captured under (c), is to identify and eliminate employment barriers against persons who do not belong to dominant ethnic groups within the county or marginalised persons that results from the systems of employment, policies and practices which are not authorised by the law. This continues to support the claim and thoughts that I was sharing just before this. In my neighbouring county of Migori, you find smaller communities that do not come from there. Sen. Olekina, you need to be impressed by this because your county also has this kind of challenge where you have a dominant community and other smaller tribes. These are some of the national values we need to uphold. Even those of us who come from counties that have a dominant ethnic population, it is time we spoke against the practice of say, naming 10 of 10 CECs from one particular ethnic group and yet there is no single county that I know of in this country, that can claim to have 100 per cent membership from only a single ethnic group. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
