    "content": "(Hon. (Prof.) Kithure Kindiki): Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in response, I inform the House that NPRs continue to do a good job in securing their communities. At the moment, we give them a token of Kshs5,000 a month, which has been described as inadequate and we agree with that. However, because of budgetary constraints, we have not been able to review that allowance forward. We are fighting to have it released timeously before we even think of reviewing it upwards, because at times, it takes two or three months before it is released. I am a great supporter of enhanced allowances for NPRs. We are also looking at permutations, to see whether this financial year, we can put NPRs on the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) medical cover in order to improve on their welfare."
