"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise to support Hon. Mbui’s request for statement on the conduct and the directions given by the PSRA in regard to private security firms raising the minimum wage of security officers to Ksh30,000. The era of people or authorities making unilateral statements or directions is long gone. One cannot wake up one morning and do letters and spread them across all the security firms and tell them that they must pay their security officers Ksh30,000 by a particular date. Security firms operate under contractual agreements with their clients. Even Government entities pay security officers between Ksh21,000 to Ksh25,000. A CEO of PRSA cannot wake up one morning and direct security firms to pay security officers Ksh30,000. That is an illegality. You cannot bypass this House. This House makes laws. One cannot wake up one morning, bypass this House, ignore subsidiary legislation process, and decide the rule is this way. Hon. Speaker, we support Hon. Mbui’s request for statement."
