    "content": "The Public Service is a whole chapter in our Constitution. It is Chapter 15 of the Constitution, beginning with Article 232 all the way to Article 236. I am sure that Mr. Stephen Kirogo will handle matters that are under the chapter in terms of values and principles of public service. He must make sure that the men and women who work in the public service, be they at the national Government or county government levels, adhere to the provisions of Article 232 (1), on values and principles of the public service. They must portray standards of professional ethics. They must always be accountable for the administrative work they do. They must involve the public in the policy-making process in terms of human resource of our country. As regards the Public Service Commission, under Article 233 of the Constitution, there is a specific function given to them. Article 234 of the Constitution provides that the Public Service Commission must at all times hear and make determination on Kenyans who in one way or another have had their rights violated at the work place. They must investigate, monitor and above all, evaluate the administrative structure of Government – the personnel practices of the Public Service. They must also ensure that the Public Service is efficient and effective. I am sure that Mr. Stephen Kirigo is going to join other men and women who were approved by this House: His Vice Chair, Amb. Nkuraiyia; the former Clerk of the National Assembly, Patrick Gichohi and other Kenyans who are now working at the Public Service Commission. I am sure that he will add value and make sure that our public service is up to standard."
