<\/p>\n
A section on during the presentation by the ORPP to National Assembly Constitutional <\/span><\/strong>Implementation <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Oversight Committee at Parliament Buildings in Nairobi.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n The proposals were geared towards enriching the Representation of Special Interest Group Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2019 before the Jeremiah Kioni\u2019s chaired House Committee. Key proposals were on specific provisions regarding the qualification and criteria for distribution of the Political Fund under section 25 of the PPA. Unlike the previously, clarity has been given in the amendment to the effect that the \u201cFund should exclusively be shared and allocated to the political parties and not the coalition of parties\u201d. In respect to the criteria for distribution, a deletion of 25 (a) (ii) with a new of sub-section has been reccomedned to read \u201c 50% of the Fund proportionately shared between political parties that meet the threshold set out under section 25 (2) (c) of the Bill\u2026\u201d the proposal reads in part. A re-introduction of a PPA 2007, provision in allocation to special interest group has been sought. Such will provide for \u201cas provided for under the 2007 Act, the 20% should be shared\/distributed proportionately among the political parties that participated in the preceding elections in reference to total number of votes secured at the last general election by each of the party\u2019s presidential, governor, parliamentary and county assembly candidates. Clarity has also been proposed to define the allocated funds to Political Parties Liaison Committee (PPLC) pursuant to section 25 (1) (e) of the Bill by replacing the word \u201cadministration\u201d with \u201cdialogue operations\u201d.<\/p>\n The proposals are part of the legal reforms that the ORPP is working on with other key stakeholders ahead of the general elections.<\/p>\n The Office was represented in the sitting by Registrar Ann Nderitu, Juliet Murimi (Compliance), Bon Makolwal (Legal), Joseph Kanja (Planning) and Joshua Kimulu (Finance).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Corporate AffairsLion Place Nairobi, Kenya; July,31,2019.
