I am happy to report that all the 32 applicants who were invited to appear before the interview panel appeared without exception.

• 30 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I wish hon. Mbadi was in our Committee. This is a matter that engaged the Committee for a whole day – we were discussing the constitutionality of this particular law. As you know, sometime last year we went for a retreat to Mombasa with the then commissioners of the NCIC and a number of proposals were made for the amendment of this Act.

They ceased to be in office nine months ago; so, there was nothing for the President to gazette; the offices are now vacant because their terms lapsed a long time ago.
