    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that death gratuity of Kshs162,699.35 due to the estate of the deceased was paid to the Assistant Public Trustee, Kakamega, on 16th September, 2005 vide Cheque No.322582 and the next of kin, Mrs. Florida Omukania Malengo, has acknowledged receipt of the payment. It may, however, be noted that the dependants’ pension, due to the children of the deceased former teacher is yet to be paid following failure of Mrs. Florida O. Malongo to avail the original birth certificates for verification and letters from schools and colleges to ascertain the children’s education status as required for such a claim. The guardian has failed to comply with this requirement despite receiving several letters from the Pensions Department requesting her to do so. (b) As the Assistant Minister responsible for this docket, I will ensure that dependants’ pension due to the children of the late Mrs. Margaret Chehenzo Ling’afwa is processed and paid within 30 days from the date the family complies with the requirements for claiming such dues and avails all the requisite supporting documents which were forwarded to them on 6th June, 2012."
