• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Mr. Jembe Ngala Emmanuel, who retired from the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) with effect from 1st September, 2007 was underpaid as a result of wrong conversion during the 1994 salary review. The anomaly was discovered while his pension was being processed. (b) The underpayment has been corrected and his salary arrears amounting to Kshs39,690.60 have been paid through Cheque No.157330, which has been delivered to Kilifi Teachers Sacco, Account No.8577284. His pension is also being processed. view
• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not have the actual date on which the cheque was delivered, but the cheque has been delivered to Kilifi Teachers Sacco. I have given the cheque number and the account number. So, Mr. Jembe Ngala Emmanuel can go and check with the Sacco. I have also said that his pension is being processed and it will be forwarded to the Director of Pensions for payment. view
• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, firstly, when teachers retire, sometimes they delay in forwarding the relevant papers to the TSC, so that their pension can be processed. Secondly, once we have processed one’s pension, the TSC does not pay it. It is the Director of Pensions who pays pensions. So, we forward the papers to the Treasury. That is where they lie. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 29 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am talking out of experience as the MP for Muhoroni Constituency. Several teachers have approached me to help them get their pension processed. When I go to the TSC, I am told such and such a paper is not there. I then go back to the teachers. They provide those papers. Immediately I submit those papers to the TSC, the pension papers are processed and delivered to the Treasury. I am speaking out of my own experience. view
