Security and Energy, Communication and Information. The three Chairs sat and agreed that we should meet tomorrow to start the process of giving him an answer. We expect that within three weeks we will be done. We will have to go and visit that place ourselves and see how it is, so that we can give the Member the exact position. The matter is actually being handled by those three Committees.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, in the circumstances of your ruling, I wish to oppose this Motion and I want Members to give me the benefit of the doubt on this one. Just listen to me and see whether perhaps what I will explain to you might change those who are not for this Motion or are for this Motion. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I am more concerned with the procedure that was followed during the vetting process. The TSC Act and even the Act on Appointments is very clear on the process that is supposed to be followed. Every nominee is treated ...

any other nominee. You get a nominee and then you interview him separately from the other nominee. From there, you make observations of that particular nominee and finally you make recommendations.

3 Oct 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, I just want to go directly to the recommendations of the Committee and if we can go there together, one of the recommendations talks about 37 names that were forwarded to the President, in contravention of the Act. That is correct, but for the three names that were supposed to be forwarded by the panel, it is the court that ruled. Once a court rules, hon. Members, the only person the President was supposed to appoint from all those is one. Whether they were three or seven, truly speaking it does not really have any difference but ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, that information was not very necessary because there is no way you can have six positions representing the people of Kenya. There is no way you can do that.
