  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: (i) THAT, taking cognisance that the ex parte conservatory High Court orders of 27th March 2018 prohibited the National Assembly from vetting Hon. Justice Mohamed Abdullahi Warsame for appointment as a Member of the Judicial Service Commission, and prohibited the House from exercising the vetting and approval requirements under Article 250(2)(b) of the Constitution pending the outcome of the court case; view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: (ii) THAT, recognising that the ex parte conservatory High Court order of 27th March 2018 also prohibited the House from exercising the vetting and approval requirements set out in Sections 3, 6, 7 and 8 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act 2011, within the time period established by Section 8 and 13 of the said law; view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: NOW THEREFORE, the National Assembly having been prohibited from confirming the suitability of Hon. Justice Mohamed Abdullahi Warsame for appointment as member of the Judicial Service Commision, as contemplated under Article 250(2)(b) of the Constitution within the period set out in law, is unable to approve his appointment as a member of Judicial Service Commission. view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Pursuant to the provisions of Article 171(2)(c) and Article 250(2)(b) of the Constitution, read together with Sections 3 and 5 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act of 2011, His Excellency the President vide a letter dated 13th March 2018, forwarded to you Hon. Speaker, a notification of nominations containing the name of Hon. Warsame as a nominee for appointment as a Member of JSC. On 20th March, 2018, you conveyed the message from the President. According to Standing Order No. 42(1), the nominee thereafter was committed to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for vetting. Section 8 ... view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: The Committee in their sitting on 28th March decided and scheduled to vet the nominee on 11th of April at 10.00 am. However, after the meeting, the Committee was advised by the Clerk to suspend the vetting of the nominee pursuant to a court order served on the same date, prohibiting the National Assembly from vetting the nominee. It is important for the House to know that the suit we are referring to is Petition No. 106 of 2018 filed in the Constitutional and Human Rights Division of the High Court filed by the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) against ... view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: The vetting of the nominee stopped on the following grounds and I wish to state as follows: The nomination of Justice Mohamed Abdullahi Warsame by the President and subsequently subjecting him to vetting by the National Assembly is ultra vires to the Constitution and the law. It is in violation of Article 171(2) and Section 15(2) of the Judicial Service Commission Act. In view of those orders of the court, the Committee could not: (a) Comply with Section 6(3) and (4) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act and Standing Order 45(3), which requires the Clerk of the National Assembly ... view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: law, a House of procedure, a House of rules, a House of records, we were not able, because of those reasons, to approve the nomination of Justice Warsame. I want to call upon my colleagues to approve this Report as presented by the Committee. It is my duty to request my Vice-Chair, Hon. Wahome, to second the Motion. view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to agree with you. I am sure my good friend, Hon. Mbadi, was keenly listening to me when I moved the Motion. From the level of inviting the public to give their memoranda up to the time as a Committee we invited the nominee to appear before us, a court order was served. We could not go through the full process of vetting the nominee because of that court order. The particular Recommendation No.(iii) in the Report is actually prohibiting this House from commenting on our Report. We were unable to vet the nominee ... view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: him as required under the notification from the appointing authorities. I think that is the gist. So, you are right by saying that, removal or deletion of Recommendation No. (iii) is to facilitate this House to pronounce itself on its inability through a Committee to vet the nominee. Ultimately, we have reported back to the House after being unable to vet the nominee and made a Report which is before us now. I clarify our position. view
  • 17 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I will take a very short time. Let me start by appreciating Hon. T.J. because if we went through the whole process of vetting the nominee and we tabled our Report, then this House would have had the chance and the benefit to look at all the issues. I recall the last time you gave directions, as said by Hon. Mbadi, you told this Committee to be very exhaustive and comprehensively look at the various Articles of the Constitution. That was the direction we wanted to take. That could have been part of our Report, but ... view
