Abstract

Purpose: This paper aimed at critically analyzing the laws and jurisprudence on salary and remuneration of public and state officers in Kenya. Methodology: The paper used desk review method. It identified secondary materials related and relevant to study. Particularly, the study journal articles and case laws. Results: The study found that Salaries and Remuneration Commission, as an independent body under the constitution charged with remuneration of public and state officers has experienced lot of interference from other state agencies. At the same time the commission has in some instance acted ultra vires despite the law providing clearly its mandate. Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: To avoid the court battles as a result of interferences, there is need for the commission to have structural engagement with all public agencies and bodies so as to clarify its mandate. Just as the relationship between the national and county governments is based on the principle of consultation and cooperation, the same can be adopted by the commission to ensure effective and efficient service delivery.
对肯尼亚公共和国家官员薪金和报酬的法律和判例的批判性分析
目的:本文旨在批判性地分析肯尼亚公共和国家官员工资和薪酬的法律和判例。方法学:采用案头回顾法。它确定了与研究相关的二手材料。特别是,研究期刊文章和判例法。结果:研究发现,工资和薪酬委员会作为宪法下负责公共和国家官员薪酬的独立机构,受到了其他国家机构的许多干扰。与此同时,委员会在某些情况下越权行事,尽管法律明确规定了它的任务。对理论、实践和政策的独特贡献:为了避免由于干涉而引起的法庭斗争,委员会有必要与所有公共机构和团体进行结构性接触,以澄清其任务。正如国家和县政府之间的关系是基于协商和合作的原则一样,委员会也可以采用同样的原则来确保有效和高效的服务提供。
