    "content": "“(2) A person shall qualify for appointment under this section if he or she— (a) is as an advocate of the High Court of Kenya of not less than five years’ standing or has held judicial office in Kenya; (b) has at least five years managerial experience; and, (c) has, at least, five years’ experience in matters relating to copyright and other related rights” I need to give the recommendations of the Committee as to why we came up with this one. One such is that on the appointment of the Executive Director of the KCB, we needed this process to be very competitive. We need to introduce reasonable qualifications for appointments of the Executive Director. They requested that one has to be an advocate of the High Court with not less than five year’s standing with, at least, five of those years being in managerial experience and experience in copyright matters. This is due to the technical nature of copyright matters. We took in those amendments."
