Order of Precedence Bill, 2014... Not sure its useful as protocol depends on event! An Act of Parliament to provide for the order of precedence for officials at diplomatic, official and social state functions within Kenya and abroad and for connected purposes... This Bill provides for the Order of Precedence and Protocol with the following hierarchy: a) President b) Deputy President c) Speakers of Parliament d) the Chief Justice e) Leader of Majority/Leader of Minority f) Members of Parliament g) County Governors h) Justices of the Supreme Court i) Judges of the Court of Appeal k) Former Presidents of Kenya j) Former Vice Presidents, Deputy Presidents and Prime Ministers l) Ambassadors and High Commissioners of Foreign Missions in Kenya m) Cabinet Secretaries and AG (whose plan is this to downgrade our Cabinet Secs?) n) Principal Secretaries o) Chief of Defence Forces p) Inspector General of Police q) Director General of the National Intelligence r) Chairpersons of Constitutional Commissions...*z) Wanjiku (the citizens!) This is the order in which state and public officers would get seats and make speeches.... If all the officers speak functions will be ending at midnight! Why pass such a law? How is this a priority Bill for Kenya.... This is how Bunge gets it wrong by first dealing with laws about ourselves... we are now No. 6 way above the 46 Serem Commission gave us... I thank God am from civil society where we dont have protocol issues, everybody is important... Ill share some stories on protocol...
