    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I confirm that only 530 instructors and managers in youth polytechnics are employees of the Public Service Commission. These instructors enter the Civil Service at Job Groups H, J, and K depending on the level of their qualifications and also professionalism. Their salaries and allowances are as follows:- Job Group H and J - the number of instructors is 219; the basic salary is Kshs16,692; medical allowance is Kshs990; house allowance ranges between Kshs2,300 to Kshs5,000. Job Group H - number of instructors is 242; basic salary is Kshs21,304; medical allowance is Kshs990; house allowance is between Kshs3,000 to Kshs5,000; Job Group K has 69 instructors; basic salary is Kshs26,323; medical allowance is Kshs1,245; house allowance ranges between Kshs5,000 to Kshs10,000. The rest of the managers and instructors are employees of the management committees of their respective youth polytechnics. It is these management committees that determine their salaries and allowances. (b) Remuneration of public service employees is determined by the Public Service Commission of Kenya and their salaries and allowances are reviewed from time to time by the Government. The instructors' salaries, who are public servants will, therefore, be improved alongside those of other civil servants after a requisite review by the Public Service Commission. The Ministry has, therefore, no control over the remuneration of the employees of the management committees. However, the instructors have been advised to upgrade their skills in order to be eligible for future appointments by the Public Service Commission."
