His Excellency the President, therefore, seeks the approval of this House on the nominees for appointment to the aforementioned positions in the Independent Policing Oversight Authority and the Salaries and Remuneration Commission. Hon. Members, Standing Order No. 45 requires that upon receipt of notification of nomination for appointments, such nominations shall stand committed to the relevant Departmental Committee of the House for consideration. Pursuant to the provisions of the said Standing Order, therefore, and paragraph three of Standing Order No. 42 relating to Messages from the President, I hereby refer the Messages from His Excellency the President on the Independent Policing Oversight Authority and the Salaries and Remuneration Commission to the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security and the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning respectively to undertake the necessary approval hearings. Hon. Members, Section 11(6) of the Independent Policing Oversight Authority Act, 2011 and Section 7(11) of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission Act, 2011, requires the National Assembly to either approve or reject the nominees to the respective positions within 21 and 14 days respectively. In this regard, I wish to guide the Committees and the House as follows: (i) The Committees should notify the nominees and the general public of the time and place for holding the approval hearings in good time. The notification should therefore be made on Wednesday, 8th August 2018. (ii) The Committees may thereafter commence the necessary approval hearings from 14th August 2018 in respect of the nominee to the Salaries and Remuneration Commission and on 16th August 2018 for the nominees to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority. (iii)Thereafter, the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning should submit its Report to this House on or before 21st August 2018 in respect of its consideration of the nominees for appointment to the Salaries and Remuneration Commission. (iv) The Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security should submit its Report in respect of nominees for appointment to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority on or before 28th August 2018. I thank you, Hon. Members."
