    "content": "When you pay peanuts, you get monkeys. I have realized that the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC), of course, is the one that determines remuneration. The Auditor-General‘s Office needs to be looked at on remunerative terms more favourably, considering that now we have given him freedom to hire the best that he can get. If you subject them to the peanuts that they are paid, they might not perform their work very well. I thought I would open up a bit and allow the SRC to also refer to what similar positions earn not just in the Public Service but in private institutions also. That is the intent of my amendment. Therefore, I beg to move:- THAT, clause 17 of the Bill be amended by inserting the following new sub clause immediately after sub clause (1) – ―(1A) The remuneration of such staff should reflect the prevailing remuneration of such staff performing similar duties in the audit profession in other public and private institutions in Kenya‖."
