Once we train them and send them out or take them to college so that they can perform special duties like ballistic and forensic investigations and documentation, they should be remunerated as per their certificates or what they have been trained in. That is why many officers will go for greener pastures in the private sector or even outside the country. They have the papers and when they bring them back, we retain them with the same salaries or give them a small token. We even retain them in the same premises where they were staying. At the end of ...

will run there. If we give them the right and necessary equipment and ammunition to do their work, I strongly believe that they will remain in the police force.

Waluke and ensure that we train our police officers, have a system of exit for them and keep them comfortable in their places of work. We should also arm them properly to fight crime.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I stand to support the nomination of this Kenyan for the position of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the SRC. Going through the profile of this lady, it is evident that she has been competently sitting on this desk for the last 16 months and, therefore, has experience given that she has already worked there for one year and four months. Even her experience in HELB--- We know how it operates and all its problems as far as cash is concerned. I believe this lady, with her education and ...
