AWARE THAT the implementation of the departmental budgets are over sighted by the respective sectoral committees, Further aware that, the County Officers are spread in all Departments, this mandate therefore goes beyond the responsibility of a single committee of the House and requires a multi skilled membership committee that can grasp each angle of the subject matter. DEEPLY CONCERNED that the County Executive have become used to the other Committees through the various responses that they have sought of which responses are pending a case of Public Service Committee which is Charged with the responsibility of handling matters of employment and remuneration, that was tasked on 17 th April 2018, to give a response on the Employment done by the County Government since September 2017, and a substantive response is yet to be given to this House. This mandate therefore requires a different committee with specific terms of reference. I therefore move a Motion that this House considers to form an Ad-hoc Committee to investigate and respond on the following: 1. Seek to get the findings of the Human Resource Audit conducted in the Executive by a consultant. 2. Establish the percentage of the total County budget that each department absorbs in form of salaries. 3. Establish the skills required by each department for it to achieve its mandate. 4. Find out what proportion of the skills that each department has that are not required by the same department and establish which department can utilize such skills for optimum productivity. 5. Establish whether there are employees who are willing to serve our County in other areas /Spheres not as employees. 6. Establish how to create job opportunities for the County Youth who comprise of 60% of the County Population. 7. Establish and make recommendations on how to reallocate, redistribute and readjust the County Revenue so as to reduce the 49% personal
emoluments to comprise 35% of the Total revenue basket as per the legal provisions. Hon. Speaker, in reference to the issues raised above, I beg to move a Motion That, this Assembly resolves to form an Ad-hoc Committee to investigate on matters of Personnel Emoluments in the County Government. **************************************************************************************** WEDNESDAY, 18 TH JULY, 2018 AT 9:30AM ORDERS OF THE DAY Administration of Oath, Communication from the Chair, Messages, Petitions, Papers, Notices of Motions, Motions and Bills.
