    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like also to raise the issue which hon. Musila raised regarding the low pension being given to very old pensioners. I would like to tell him that I am his fellow pensioner and I earn Kshs8,000 having retired from the armed forces at the rank of a very senior major. Really, the issue is a very serious one, but it is one that needs to be addressed separately from this particular Bill. This particular Bill is dedicated to administering what is currently there. Pension is pegged on salary. Therefore, increasing it, it means addressing the issue of salary of someone who has already retired. That requires a lot of background work and consultations if we want to come up with such kind of justification."
