"content": "(8) Remuneration of the Chief Administrative Secretaries shall be determined by the Public Service Commission on the recommendation of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission. Hon. Temporary Chairlady, this proposal seeks to amend the provisions governing the nature, functions and qualifications applicable to the post of the Head of Public Service. Under these amendments, the Head of the Public Service is established in the Executive Office of the President. The holder of the office is to be recommended by the Public Service Commission for appointment by the President. It also seeks to assign the Head of Public Service the role of the Chief of Staff to the Executive Office of the President. The amendment further saves and transits the rights and legitimate expectations of the person who was appointed as the Head of Public Service by the President before the passage of provisions proposed in the Bill. That is the reason as to why we have the last section preserving that office and transiting it. I beg to move."
