"content": " These nominees are best placed at this time. The Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs scrutinised them. Their documents were verified, and it was proven that they were the most qualified for the positions. I hereby support their nomination. At this crucial time, we have issues with police officers or law enforcement officers. We should have a Tribunal that balances confidentiality with the duties of the law enforcement agencies. It can address matters that the public cannot address directly. It is the right time for them to play the role of arbitrators of what will be presented to them. I support the Motion."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Report of the Committee. What we used to know as NGOs are now called Public Service Organisations (PSOs). They are an important part of a democratic society. They offer charity in service delivery. They are often the ones who conduct the most public education on all matters of public interest. They lobby when we have new policies and laws. Many times, they are the first to draw attention to matters of public interest. Therefore, they are very important politically. To that extent, they are also controversial. They are often funded by foreign sources, which puts them in controversy, particularly when we want to pass laws or do things that are not supported by the public. The need for a Tribunal to support them is important because they face significant criticism and are often accused of various things. Sometimes, they do things that are against the public interest. This Tribunal is extremely important. According to the Committee’s report, the proposed members went through the correct vetting process. Each of them was found suitable in terms of education, professional qualifications and experience. I had an opportunity to interact with some of them, particularly the proposed Chairperson. She is a lady of great integrity and industry. I have seen how she leads public organisations. She will do a good job. With those remarks, I support the Motion."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. I rise to support this progressive act through the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs under the able stewardship of Hon. Murugara. The Tribunal will create a very good atmosphere in teaming the sector. The nominees are of high integrity and credibility. I believe the lady who has been nominated as the Chairperson is capable of leading the sector and, more importantly, serving Kenyans with the integrity required.

"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Allow me to thank everybody who has contributed to this Motion. The support is overwhelming. I confirm that although the Act establishing this Tribunal came into force in 2013, we did not establish it at that time. This is the right time to do it. I congratulate the five nominated members and urge them to go and perform their duties diligently. Kenyans are waiting for them to receive the justice which is supposed to come from this Tribunal. Even if it is quasi-judicial, it must deliver justice to all parties who appear before it without fear, favour or ill will. With those remarks, I beg to reply. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
