Less than a month after winning big on disputed car grants, MPs are expected to start receiving millions of shillings in weekly mileage claims. This comes after the parliamentary service commission , the MPs’ employer, reverted to the salaries and remuneration commission  circular of November 2013. The treasury is expected to release 2.1 billion shillings  in car grants to MPs five months after it was abolished by SRC through a gazette notice in July 2017.  This means that each of the 416 MPs in the national assembly and the senate will now get sh5 million, which was included in the PSC budget passed in March 2017. With a mileage allowance to boot, this is a sure win for the MPs predicated on a high court ruling which suspended the SRC gazette notice in a case filed by PSC. The suspended SRC notice had introduced a new regime that sought to have senators and national assembly members paid a fixed monthly transport allowance through the payroll.
