• 19 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: so, it cannot be re-introduced. It is the amendment of the Chairman which we defeated. So, procedurally, it is out of question. Number two, the amendment by hon. Ogalo Oner and made much clearer by hon. Angwenyi and then supported by hon. Lang’at and hon. Makali is the amendment which I think clarifies the fact that the person nominated is a person with disability and can be of either gender and that nomination is done by the County Member of Parliament. view
