    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware of the deaths of Twaha Fankupi Mzee (P/No.2003049184), Badi Said Mwajirani (P/No.77012125) and Juma Yusuf Mwagatu (P/No.1993047588). (b) The status of the death gratuity and pensions for the mentioned deceased officers are as follows:- 1. On the late AP (IP) Badi Said Mwajirani – P/No.77012125- the Group Personal Accident claim for civil servants in respect of the above deceased was processed and forwarded to Treasury on 21st January, 2011. A Work Injury Benefits claim was also processed and submitted to the Directorate of Occupational Safety and Health Services on 8th February, 2011. The death gratuity claim has been processed and will be submitted to the Director of Pensions soon. The delay in payment has been occasioned by delay on the part of the family in submitting relevant documents, which were required. However, these documents have since been submitted and payment will be made within one month. 2. The late AP (IP) Juma Yusuf Mwagatu of P/No.93047588, has Pension No.APN/PC 228017. Death gratuity for the late IP Juma Yusuf Mwagatu amounting to Kshs521,640 was paid in November, 2010 through the Public Trustee, Mombasa, while the Group Personal Accident claim was paid through the Public Trustee, Nairobi. Injury benefits have been processed and the next of kin are advised to liaise with the Treasury for further directions. That means that if the next of kin goes to Treasury, they will be forced to provide their account number for the money to be banked. 3. The late APC Twaha Mzee Fankumpi of P/No.2003049184, has Pension No.APN/GC232480. The death gratuity claim for the deceased was processed and submitted to the Director of Pensions on 19th April, 2011; the same will be paid through the Public Trustee, Mombasa, within one month. However, it should be noted that the delay was occasioned by non-submission of the relevant documents to support the claim. (c) As noted above, all the relevant documents have been forwarded to Treasury by my Ministry and, therefore, the family members are advised to pursue the matter with the Pensions Department at the Treasury. Indeed, it should be noted that with regard to the cases of the late Juma Yusuf Mwagatu and Twaha Mzee Fankumpi, they have been issued with pension numbers. So, once you have received the pension number, it means what is going to follow is just the cheque. They will be getting their cheques soon."
