"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. Sessional Paper No.3 of 1985 on pension for retirees is not operational. It was replaced by the Pensions Increase Act, Cap.190, as amended in 2006 to replace the new Government pensions policy at the time. The Pension Increase Act, Cap.190, 2006 as amended, also raised the minimum pension from Ksh500 per month to Kshs2,000 for every pensioner. Since then, there have been three other pension increases effected on 1st July, 2007, 1st July, 2009 and 1st July, 2011. The next pension increase will be implemented with effect from 1st July, 2013. The rates provided for under the Act were a percentage increase of 3 per cent every two years."
