Monthly stipends for the elderly, orphans to be adjusted for inflation
Elderly people follow proceedings during the launch of Inua Jamii 70 and Above Cash Transfer Programme at Mweiga stadium in Nyeri county on July 5, 2017.
Cash transfers to the needy will be periodically adjusted for inflation if Parliament approves a proposal to cushion the beneficiaries against the erosion of the real value of their social protection benefits and safeguard their well-being.
A government-backed Bill proposes inflation-adjusted social protection benefits to help beneficiaries keep up with the increase in consumer prices of critical items, including food and drugs.
