    "content": "That led to the birth of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC). It is not the Government of the day that wanted the formation of the PSC. That changed everything. My pay slip then read Kshs.56,000. I could pick it and call hon. Kajwang’, who was also a very young legislator. I was in active business and I would ask myself what I would do with Kshs56,000. We did not have offices and cars. What would you do with Ksh56,000? Life was really frustrating but that changed everything. Not for the individual Members of Parliament but for the constituencies and the management of the entire Republic. I urge you as colleagues, as Members of the Eleventh Parliament, to stand firm for issues that affect the welfare of constituents, and current and former Members. Therefore, this Bill with minimal cost and professionalise the lives of our former colleagues. There are some who are very young and when I see them, I am touched. They come to this place for their breakfast and hang around for 10.00 a.m. tea. They also hang around for well wishers to buy them lunch and in the evening for their early dinner which is at about 5.00 p.m."
