MPs Ong'ondo Were (Kasipul) and Jerusha Momanyi (Nyamira) questioned why an important institution such as Parliament fails to represent the face of Kenya in its hiring. "From your own submissions, only 25 communities are represented. From the PSC records, employees from the Kikuyu community make up the majority with 164 employees, followed by the Luhya at 126 and the Luo at 90. From the statistics, the majority of the workforce is aged 30–39, accounting for 42.12 per cent, followed by 40–49, who add up to 299 or 35 per cent of the 353 staffers.
