• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: On the matter in dispute, the Committee posed a query about the legal provision upon which SRC resides to make the guidelines in question. In response, SRC submitted that the guidelines had been made pursuant to Section 11 (e) of the Salaries and Remunerations Commission Act No.10 of 2011, which states as follows: “(11) In addition to the powers or the functions of the Commission under Article 230 (4), the Commission shall – (e) Determine the cycle of salaries and remuneration review upon which Parliament may allocate adequate funds for implementation.” view
• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is clear that Section 11 of the SRC Act purely sets out the functions of the SRC, but it is not crafted in the manner prescribed in Article 94 (6) of the Constitution.

• 21 Oct 2021 in National Assembly: The Committee observed that the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) had not relied on Section 26 as its enabling provision to issue the impugned guidelines. However, even if Section 26 were to be relied upon in this case, the guidelines as crafted generally offend the requirement of the Statutory Instruments, Act No.13 of 2012 and the Interpretations and General Provisions Act, Cap.2 of the Laws of Kenya. view
