    "content": "We involved the Senate in this Bill because Article 230 of the Constitution establishes the SRC. It is mandated to examine and regulate public and State officers both at the national and county levels. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the object of the Bill is to amend the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (Amendment) Act of 2011, by introducing a requirement that the relevant nominating body should consider applications, interview a candidate and forward the names to the Cabinet Secretary within 28 days. It also proposes to introduce the expiry of term of the office of commissioners at six years as set out in the Constitution as a ground for vacating office. It is intended to align the Act to Article 250 (6)(a) of the Constitution. If enacted, the Bill will provide timelines within which a nominating body is supposed to present the name of a nominee for appointment to the position of commissioner in the SRC to the CS."
