    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I want to thank Hon. Kaunya for moving the Motion. I stand to second the Report. As the Committee we undertook vetting of these nominees. I want to confirm to the House the Committee was very determined to establish that all necessary laws and requirements as per the Constitution and as per the Act are fulfilled. We had some challenges when we were doing the vetting with some of the communication with the relevant bodies. In the near future, to help the committees, we would wish to look at the appointment procedures of some of these members because if we are not keen, we are going to deny Kenyans who are qualified and have the experience opportunity to serve this country. I want to confirm that all the nominees complied with the law and they were able to appear before us and explain themselves. Worth noting is the person who has been nominated as the Chairperson of this Commission, Rev. Kobia. He has been a scholar. He has been the presidential adviser on issues of equal opportunity and cohesion within the country. If you look at his CV, he is one of the most experienced persons for this Commission. I know his experience will bring a lot of cohesion within this Commission. The second interviewee was Eng. Okundi. The man has a wealth of experience. I believe in this Commission he will bring all the experience he has been able to gather in different sectors of the country. Also, his wisdom is amazing. I was glad for the first time we interviewed two young people for Cohesion and Equal Opportunity that is, Ms. Peris and Danvas Makori. For the first time, the youth out there should understand the current administration values them. This is a Commission which most people The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
