Counties have gone to court to overturn a Kenya Gazette notice that cut the pay and perks of speakers, MCAs and ministers, opening another war front against the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC).
County officials reckon the lower pay has affected the functioning of devolution and accuse the SRC of failing to consult over the July salary cuts of top officials, including the president and MPs, which aimed to save Sh8.5 billion a year.
