Stop this discrimination, MPs say in push for hefty house allowanceMPs have vowed not to back down on their controversial decision to award themselves housing allowances. The legislators accused the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) of discrimination, saying other state officers get similar benefits. Insiders at SRC confirmed that a deal was struck at the State House for Cabinet Secretaries, Principal Secretaries and Chief Administrative Secretaries to get between Sh250,000 and Sh300,000 in house allowance. “We are aware of the State House deal. I have never heard of any CS or PS hosting a foreign guest in their house,” said an MP.
