Public servants will soon be allowed to use the state-backed loans to buy commercial vehicles and motorcycles in proposed National Treasury reforms. The new plan aims at improving loan uptake for the struggling state Motor Car Loan Scheme Fund. Appearing before the committee on Delegated Legislation chaired by Samuel Chepkonga, Mbadi said the reforms are designed to make the facility attractive and accessible to more public servants. The changes will be done through amendments to the State Officers and Public Officers Motor Car Loan Scheme Fund Regulations of 2025. According to Treasury, managers of the fund have been summoned several times to explain why public officers are not utilising the facility.
