    "content": "The Bill is fairly progressive. It contains very progressive provisions, but I have concerns about one or two things. The first one is the issue of appointment of the chair of the council. It seems to give the appointing authority; the President of the Republic of Kenya, unfettered powers to appoint a chair without consideration of qualifications and any process of vetting. Probably, I assume that is the military way of doing things. I would have imagined that we would make proposals or amendments during the Committee of the whole House to put qualifications for the Director-General under Clause 9(8) that provides for general qualifications of members to be appointed to the service."
