Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. We also recommend that in the long-term, the Commission should fast-track the construction of the new office block and prioritise completion of Members’ offices and facilities to guarantee proper allocation of offices to all Members within Parliament Buildings. The offices at the Continental House are not good for the Members. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

While setting up a gymnasium in the new building, we recommend that the Commission should take into consideration the many things that Members require in that gymnasium. We also recommend that some items should be disposed of as quickly as possible, particularly the vehicles which have been lying for a long time. We also recommend that mileage allowance, car grant, salaries and other allowances should be given to the Members, which I said, by the Commission.

There are few concerns I would like to comment on. First is on payment of parliamentary staff. As a Committee, we are also very concerned because it is not only the payment to the employees which is a matter of concern, but when the statutory deductions which are to be paid on a monthly basis such as Pay As You Earn (PAYE), the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) and the National Social Security Fund (NSSF), are not made on time, they attract penalties. I discussed the matter with the department of finance yesterday. I am yet to discuss it with ...
