(Ms.) Odhiambo-Mabona","speaker":{"id":376,"legal_name":"Millie Grace Akoth Odhiambo Mabona","slug":"millie-odhiambo-mabona"},"content":"The Bill as it is currently crafted provides that there shall be a chairperson who shall be appointed by the President on the recommendation of the CS but the vice-chairperson shall be appointed at every meeting. I have never seen a place where the vice-chair is appointed in every meeting. There is always a permanent vice-chair who is usually elected by the members. My proposed amendment is to give the members the opportunity to elect a permanent vice- chairperson and they can provide a procedure for his removal. You cannot have a new vice- chairperson in every meeting. It does not provide consistency and permanency."}
