    "content": "qualifications for appointment. And subsequently, we also considered the provisions of Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act which in Section 7, clearly states the issues to be taken into account in the consideration of the nominees. The issue for consideration by the relevant House of Parliament in relation to any nomination shall be: a. The procedure used to arrive at the nominee. b. Any constitutional or statutory requirements relating to the office in question. c. The suitability of the nominee for the appointment proposed, having regard to the nominee’s abilities, experience and qualities. Qualities are observed to be the needs of the body in which the nomination is made. Having considered all those, the following are the observations for each of the nominees: For the Chairperson, Ms. Lyn Cherop Mengich appeared for vetting before the Committee on Thursday 23rd August 2018. The Committee observed that Lyn Mengich, a Kenyan citizen - her qualifications displayed by the certificates thereof - holds a Master’s of Science degree in human resource and has studied in various universities. We also observed that she has long experience in human resource management. The nominee is a member of the Institute of Human Resource Management. She has a wealth of experience in executive and management roles. She is currently the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Nuevo Consulting and she was previously in leadership position having been a Human Resource Director of Barclays Bank of Kenya and Kenya Commercial Bank. She has also worked in different positions at Kenya Shell and was a Human Resource Director at Smithkline Beecham. This particular nominee displayed a very clear understanding of the topical issues on human resource. She has never been dismissed from any position and has never been arraigned in any court of law. She appears to have a lot of knowledge, experience and qualification. The next nominee we considered is Hon. Dalmas Otieno Anyango. Hon. Dalmas Otieno Anyango is a renowned politician in this country. He has occupied several positions, including being a Member of this House in the 11th Parliament. He held various positions including being Minister from early 1990, where he was the Minister for Public Service. He is an associate of chartered insurance institute and expert in insurance. He has been deeply engaged in issues around human resource, other than being a politician. Having considered Dalmas Otieno, it was of the considered view of the Committee that he has requisite experience and he has proper qualification for this particular position."
