    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to request a Statement from the Chairman of the Committee on Devolution and Planning on the following issues: First, what steps the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) is taking to review the salaries and allowances of the Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs) between April and October, 2013. Secondly, what has led to the suspension of all sittings by the county assemblies in the Republic? Thirdly, what steps the SRC has taken to address this salary crisis which threatens to paralyse the effective functioning of the devolved system of government, especially after the Senate passed a Motion of Adjournment because these are matters of definite and urgent national importance. Lastly, the Chairman should give us a Statement on the urgent and effective measures the Committee is proposing to this House to bring to an end the stalemate so that the county assemblies can resume their sittings. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
