    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the gracious lady is called, Mrs. Mwende Mwinzi. I agree with Hon. Cecily Mbarire, let us not trivialize this matter. Let us respect nominees and let us respect the law. All of them have qualified. They have qualified under statutory requirements of the Parliamentary Approval Act. They were cleared by Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and Higher Education Loans Board (HELB). They are also tax compliant and have the relevant managerial and educational qualifications. The House should listen to me. Section 52 of the Leadership and Integrity Act No.19 of 2012, which I had the privilege to serve in the 10th Parliament and participated in the enactment of that law, says pursuant to Article 80(c) of the Constitution and Part 2 of this Act, except Section 18 shall apply to all public officers as if they were State officers. That tells you who a public officer is and who a State officer is. They are the same except in Section 18 of that Act. So, you cannot say we draw a line between a public officer and a State officer. That is the Constitution."
