(a) I am aware that workman injury benefits due to ex-police officer Bakari Maulana Fahim have not been paid. However, I wish to confirm that an amount of Kshs1,813,920 is being processed by the Minister of Finance as per the advice from the Minister of Labour in their letter Ref.WIDA/MSCA/137 dated 28th September, 2010. I wish to table a copy of the letter. (b) The benefits will be paid when the process is finalized. I have evidence to show in the House that the Ministry of Labour had worked on a computerized sheet as from 2010/2011 and his name Bakari M. Ami, P/No. 2006011033, is appended here and signed for. So it is in the process. This is to show that we are a serious Ministry. We do not want to delay with the payment, especially one that pertains to death."}
