The government is keen to strengthen the National Police Service Commission (NPSC) to enable it perform its functions effectively.

The Chief of Staff and Head of Public Service Felix Koskei says the government is aware that police functions had been usurped and its budget assigned to other institutions that had no mandate on police matters.

“This had made it very difficult for the Commission to undertake its functions more so in recruitment and provision of medical cover for police officers,” he said.

The commission now has all the required members who have been inducted and can now make independent decisions and ensure quorum.
