The National Assembly has extended an invitation to Kenyans to submit their views on the suitability of President William Ruto's nominees for different Cabinet Secretary positions.

This is in accordance with the provisions set out in the Constitution and the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, aiming to ensure transparency and public involvement in the approval process.

Under Section 6(9) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, any individual can provide evidence contesting the suitability of a nominee through a written statement on oath.

This legal framework ensures that the public has a voice in the vetting process of government officials.

<h3>Significance of public participation</h3>

The National Assembly Clerk, Samuel Njoroge, emphasised the importance of public participation in this process.

"In compliance with Article 118(1)(b) of the Constitution and Section 6(9) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2011, we invite members of the public to submit their representations. These should be written statements on oath with supporting evidence contesting the suitability of any nominee proposed for appointment,” said Njoroge.

The submitted views will play a critical role in the parliamentary approval process, ensuring that the selected Cabinet Secretaries meet the necessary standards of integrity and capability.

For further information, citizens are encouraged to visit the National Assembly's official website or contact the Clerk's office directly.
