    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the PSC is established under Article 127(1) of the Constitution principally to provide services and facilities to ensure the efficient and effective functioning of Parliament. The administrative co-ordination of this mandate is rendered in the Office of the Clerk of the relevant House. The Office of the Clerk of the Houses of Parliament in Kenya’s bicameral Parliament is established by Article 128 of the Constitution which states: “(1) There shall be a Clerk for each House of Parliament, appointed by the Parliamentary Service Commission with the approval of the relevant House. (2) The offices of the Clerks and offices of members of the staff of the Clerks shall be offices in the Parliamentary Service.” The terms and condition of service of the Clerk of a House of Parliament and staff in the Parliamentary Service are contained in the Parliamentary Service Commission Act, 2000 and as revised in 2012. Allow me, Hon. Speaker to draw the attention of the House to Section 17(1) of the Act relating to retirement and resignation of employees. It states in part: “An employee shall retire from the Service on attaining the age of sixty years.”"
