Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I wish to persuade the hon. Members present in this House to support this particular amendment. Please, remember this is a society; it is not the elections of a parastatal. We have a challenge when you say they must do single sourcing. If you restrict the body to conduct elections to the IEBC, then they say they want Kshs.1billion from the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), you are actually saying they cannot go elsewhere. They are using members’ money; not public money. I would want to persuade my colleagues to support this particular amendment.

Can I seek clarification, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady? When you say failure to attend four consecutive Council meetings and you do not bring a proviso to exempt those who are sick, or one who has sought permission are you being fair? I propose that you amend it further so that one can be excused for reasons acceptable by the Council itself. You can be sick or you can be out of the country for further studies or something

Yes. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I will support this particular amendment. Anybody who is aware of qualification of CPS will agree with me that it is just an issue of taking minutes. The job that is given to the secretary here is not a secretarial one; he is a Chief Executive Officer. We are just using the word “secretary” for purposes of a CEO. Since this is a society of advocates, the necessary qualification is simply an advocate with proper experience. It is not just an issue of taking minutes, which is really clerical as it were. I ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I am inquiring from the Chair if it would not be wise to subject the regulations to a general meeting before they are enacted even if they will later come before the relevant Committee of the House. Should we just leave it to the Council and the Committee on Delegated Legislation or should the members, first of all, examine them before they are brought here? Perhaps, he can consider putting that particular further amendment.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support that. In view of what my colleague is saying, advocates normally operate from towns where there are courts. They do not operate as a county or as a certain region. It is actually towns where the courts are based. So, what the Chair is proposing to do is correct.
