The justification is that the words which are being deleted make unnecessary cross reference to the constitutional provisions. The Committee noted that the constitutional provisions cited are applicable referencing without re-stating them in the Act. We want to avoid the cross reference of those sections of the Constitution.

The proposed amendment seeks to remove the requirement in the Bill that restricts potential appointees to be clerks to persons who have 10 years of proven experience in public service. The amendment opens up the position. Somebody who has been in the private sector can apply to be a Clerk. Currently, it only restricts to a person who has served in the public service. We are opening up the position, so that all Kenyans in the private sector and public service can apply to be a Clerk of the National Assembly or the Senate.
