    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am a member of the Departmental Committee on Finance and Planning Committee which vetted this Member. She qualified in all required aspects by law for this position. Besides, she demonstrated to us that she can represent the PSC adequately where our former MPs have failed. We looked at the work done by Hon. Aringo. He is the person who initiated the PSC establishment. He also initiated the Budget Office in Parliament. But when he went there, he was overwhelmed by those other Commissioners. To that extent, he hardly represented us. Hon. Amina Abdalla suffered in the last Parliament, when the salaries of MPs was reduced from Kshs860,000 to Kshs532,000. It was reduced by more than 30 per cent, including allowances. So, she knows what we went through and has confirmed that she will defend the interest of Members and Kenyans. So, SRC should harmonise the Wage Bill of this country by conducting research."
