So, that is an area that, perhaps, I will be introducing an amendment at the Committee stage. I also agree with the previous speaker that there is no way a CEO ought to have an experience of five years and yet the Company Secretary has an experience of seven years. That should be reversed. view

When you are looking at money and issues relating to funds, you must be concerned with risk management. So, instituting e-filing or computerised filing of documents and reporting to the authority that this Bill seeks to institute would also create efficiency, reduce malpractices in our SACCO system and create more hope and help the members have much more faith in managing their SACCOs. view
