    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Section 13 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2011 relating to extension of period for consideration of nominees for appointment to a public office, this House resolves to extend the period for consideration of the two nominees submitted by His Excellency the President for appointment as Members of the Teachers Service Commission by a period of fourteen (14) days from 25th March, 2020. During a sitting of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research held on Thursday, 12th March 2020, on the vetting of the nominees for appointment as members of the TSC, a number of issues were raised, particularly on one of the nominees, Ms. Leila Abdi Ali. The Committee deemed it important to verify the issues before the conclusion of the process. The issues isolated for verification include: (i) the candidate did not submit her original Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE) and Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) despite having been requested to do so; (ii) the status of the nominee’s citizenship; and, (iii) report of the selection panel constituted under Section 8 of the Teachers Service Commission Act, No.20 of 2012 on the procedure used to arrive at the two nominees, pursuant to Section 5 (3) as read together with Section 7 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act No.33 of 2011, which report the Committee had requested for and is yet to be submitted. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
