26 Jan 2017 in National Assembly:
The amendment contained in Clause 4 seeks to amend the provisions of the term of office for the members of the Commission to require that any reappointment of the members appointed under Section 5 (1)(d) of the Act be subject to a favourable performance evaluation. Therefore, we are saying that days are gone when Parliament received some names then they were vetted by the Committee. We want these Kenyans to apply for the job. If you want to become a commissioner with the Privatisation Commission, you will apply and you must be recruited competitively. If your term is over there ...

The amendment contained in Clause 5 proposes to amend Section 23(1) of the Privatisation Act. This it does and makes a requirement that the Commission submits to the CS the specific proposals for privatisation. The CS shall in turn submit the proposals to the Cabinet for approval. This is where a Government entity needs to be privatised. The CS for National Treasury will receive the proposal and if in his honest opinion the proposal to either partly or wholly sell or privatise entity is convincing, then the CS will take the same proposal to the Cabinet for approval.

26 Jan 2017 in National Assembly:
The provision in the Act currently is very unclear on what should be done next after a specific proposal is made by the Privatisation Commission. For example, if the Kenya Meat Commission is an entity that should have private sector injection, either in terms of technology or resources. If that proposal is found, the current Act does not tell us where you should take the proposal. Therefore, this amendment says the proposal goes to the CS, National Treasury who then takes it to the Cabinet. That is the process which this Bill is creating. That is important for the privatisation ...

26 Jan 2017 in National Assembly:
Therefore, basically, those are the key highlights of this small Bill. I said it seeks to amend the Privatisation Act to expedite the approval process for privatisation proposals after wide consultations with key stakeholders, including various Committees of the National Assembly and the Senate. The other highlight is the eligibility for reappointment for a further term of three years without undergoing performance evaluation with the best corporate practice. Now, the Bill says that there must be a performance evaluation for these members to secure reappointment.
