Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, is it in order for the Minister to mislead this House that the guaranteeing is not borrowing and yet it is similar to borrowing? When you guarantee a loan, you are saying that if the entity fails, the Government of Kenyan will pay. So, indirectly, the Government is borrowing.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill. I think many a time we get faced with urgent and emergency situations.

Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we have reduced the number of Commissioners from our proposed five to two other Commissioners, excluding the Chairman. If we will give the appointing authority seven names to pick two, it will be watering down the whole essence of the interview.

The further amendment is necessary to amend this and reduce the number to four.
