"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I do not know whether you will add me more time because of those interruptions because I need to stress the point that there is a difference between benefits and pension. When somebody retires, they are paid a lumpsum and then, in subsequent years, they are paid monthly pensions, for example, Kshs3, 000 or Kshs5, 000. This should also be enhanced so that as somebody gets closer to the grave, they earn more money so that their relatives will be able to give them a respectable send off. Benefits of this kind should be paid immediately the officer in question retires. Taking too much time to pay the retiree is painstaking. I thank Sen. Obure for bringing this Motion to the House. I hope that it will be expedited so that we can know who is not doing the right thing. If it is the Director, he should be fired in order to make sure that retirement benefits are paid to the retired officers immediately they retire. Six months to me is too long a time. I support."
