    "content": " Hon. Speaker, thank you for giving me the opportunity. You have always ruled, time and again, that we can raise the issue of constitutionality at any given time during any debate. The Constitution contemplates that anybody appointed or proposed to be appointed to any position in public service must meet the qualifications set out in an Act of Parliament, Constitution or any other law or regulations in force. The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) Act No. 10 of 2011, under Section 5, is categorically clear on the qualification of somebody to be appointed as a chairperson and as a member. With your indulgence, I wish to read that particular section that talk about a member: “A person shall be qualified for appointment as a member if the person- (a) holds a degree from a university recognised in Kenya; (b) has knowledge and, at least, ten years’ experience in matter relating either- (i) public management; (ii) finance and administration; (iii) human resource management; (iv) economics; (v) labour laws; (c) has knowledge of labour market trends in Kenya as relates to income in the public and private sector; and, (d) meets the requirements of Chapter Six of the Constitution.”"
