    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, finally, under Clause 26, the Board and its members will be going against the Constitution if they are allowed to negotiate their salaries, because we have the Salaries and Remuneration Commission that we are going to set up. If the Salaries and Remuneration Commission says that there will be standard salaries for all Commissions, how then does that fit if they have negotiated themselves into being paid Kshs1 million every month? I think this clause should also go, so that they come into Government service. After all, one of the requirements is that they should demonstrate their desire to serve the public. So, they can sacrifice once more. Government service is not lucrative; it is difficult. It is a sacrifice. We are not going to let them come in and spend the first one, two or three weeks negotiating their pay package. I think that will not work. So, I propose also that we do away with the proposed Clause 26."
