Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Labor and Social Welfare concerning the status of the Human Resource Department of the County Government of Mombasa. The County Government of Mombasa has since inception of devolution attracted adverse reports from the Auditor-General on matters human resources. Currently, the current expenditure on human resource is about 48 per cent of the total budget of the county. This is contrary to the provisions of the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) state the reasons behind the failure of the county government of Mombasa to implement its own report on human resource management within the county; (2) Clarify whether the county government continues to hire and why it continues to hire more personnel despite the wage bill exceeding the stipulated 35 per cent maximum under the PFM Act; and, (3) Outline the steps that the county government of Mombasa has taken to reduce the wage bill to acceptable level, especially in the light of an understaffing in critical departments affecting service delivery. Thank you."
