    "content": "families use the little resource they have to pursue their benefits. It is like using the benefits long before they are paid. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we need to have policies geared towards improving living standards in terms of reasonable accommodation for these officers. We also need to have improved salaries for them so that they can be motivated. As we do that, there are two things we need to do; one is having a policy or a law in place and, second, is implementation of the policies. In this country, we have so many laws, but the problem is implementation. We need to look into that issue. We need to enforce the existing laws to make sure that these officers get their benefits. Where we see that there is a gap, we need to make a law. For example, the one being suggested by Sen. Muthama the insurance, we need to have it in place and ensure that it is implemented. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the disciplined forces retire as poor Kenyans simply because the salary they get is small and they live hand to mouth. If they are lucky enough to retire, they have nothing and they end up being miserable like somebody who never worked. With those remarks, I want to strongly support this Motion."
