    "content": " Hon. Chairlady, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 10 of the Bill be amended in paragraph (a) in the proposed paragraph (ae) by deleting the word “ten thousand” and substituting therefor the words “fifteen thousand” appearing in sub-paragraph (iii). Hon. Chairlady, this is where we are increasing the amount of money the employees will be able to claim against their Pay As You Earn (PAYE) for post-retirement medical Insurance Scheme. This is a big for salaried people who want to save for their post-retirement medical scheme. We are proposing to increase from the limit of Ksh10,000 to Ksh15,000. We have seen how retirees rely on their children for their medical insurance. Therefore, this proposal is to increase the amount of money that you will be allowed to claim from your PAYE, when you save for your post-retirement scheme by increasing it from Ksh10,000 to Ksh15,000. This is a big win to the salaried Kenyans of this country who would like to start contributing towards their post-retirement medical scheme."
