I am seeking to ensure that the cabinet secretary, when making appointments where it has been provided for, should take into consideration gender parity, inclusion of persons with disability, marginalised persons and the youth. But we have left out regional representation. So, I am only adding regional representation. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

Hon. Chairman, Clause 34 is just reinstating the Government Proceedings Act. So, it is not wrong because under the Government Proceedings Act, you cannot sue directly. You must give notice. You cannot sue the Government of Kenya directly. You must give notice before you sue by giving particulars and details. So, I oppose because it is going against the Government Proceedings Act.

Thank you, Hon. Chairman. I support the amendment. First, I had not seen what he was doing, but under the Constitution, we must be very clear about where we are putting delegated authority. This is the older way of providing before we had the current Constitution. So, I support the Committee. I drop mine even though it automatically falls.
