    "content": "Like my colleague, the Member for Kajiado South said, I want to say that the issue of the Leader of Official Opposition be looked into very seriously if we want to build this Parliament and make sure that it plays its rightful role. Finally, I want to say that as much it is possible, we would have to scrutinise the difference between the salaries of Members of Parliament; those who have responsibilities like Ministers and Commissioners. We must make sure that the margin is worked out so as to narrow the gap as much as possible. I want to support speaking objectively because there has been a tendency for Members of the Front Bench not to act objectively for fear of losing that position. I think in the last review, in 2003, it was deliberately made meagre so that Ministers do not fear going back to the Backbench where they can stand up and work for Kenya."
