    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank the Members who have contributed to this important Bill. I want to assure them that this time round, the SRC is heading towards the right direction. I want to thank Hon. Kisang, Hon. Wanyonyi, Hon. Sakwa Bunyasi and my colleague, Hon. Epuyo Nanok for supporting the Bill. I, however, want to assure Hon. Ferdinand Wanyonyi that the terms of service for all independent commissions are standard and are regulated by Article 250(6)(a) of the Constitution which says: “A member of a commission, or the holder of an independent office— unless ex officio, shall be appointed for a single term of six years and is not eligible for re-appointment.” So, as much as we may be happy with chairpersons of independent commissions, we are unable to reappoint them for another period. If we do that, it will be against the Constitution. With those remarks, I beg to reply. Thank you."
