    "content": "Thank you Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to issue a Statement requested by my colleague; Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo. This was a request for a Statement on the allowances and the facilities provided for the nominated Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs). I have a letter from the Secretary, Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). Pursuant to its mandate under Article 230 of the Constitution 2010, the Commission advised on the remuneration and benefits of MCAs following a job evaluation and a copy of a circular attached. In sending mileage for nominated MCAs, the Commission limited their mileage allowances to Kshs39, 528 per month. This decision was informed by the fact that nominated MCAs represent a defined populace like minorities and special interest groups whose geographical representation is not defined unlike that of elected MCAs whose areas of representation is distinct. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the purpose of of this letter is to convey the Commission’s clarifications on your request. Attached to this answer is a circular that was issued on 27th November, 2013 to all county governors and it is about the review, remuneration and benefits for MCAs. I do not know whether I should read the whole of this circular but I think I can just mention with your permission that this circular indicates the various benefits The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
