    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Report from the Committee that has guided us to a point that we can confidently reject the Report from SRC. SRC has become an animal. It has brought itself to a point that it is being seen as an authority yet we all know that it is not. It has been discriminative in the management of salaries and remuneration of employees in this country, particularly the civil servants and the quasi- civil servants grouped under Public Service Commission. It defeats logic when they mercilessly reduce the salaries for Early Childhood Education (ECDE) teachers. Surely, when you reduce the salary of an ECDE teacher from Ksh10,000 to Ksh7,000, what exactly are you saying? I have never seen these people carrying out public participation. It is in the law that any adjustments of earnings must be subjected to public participation. It is high time we tamed some of these commissions because they are acting independently to the point that they have become Government by themselves. I rise to thank the Chairperson and the Committee for this Report. We will not support SRC because it is an animal that is operating like a Government. Thank you."
