High Court Overturns SRC Directive on Judges' Ksh10 Million Car Allowance

The High Court has overturned the Salaries and Remuneration Commission's (SRC) directive to scrap the Ksh10 million car allowance provided to judges every four years. The court has ordered the Treasury to release the funds immediately, stating that the taxable car allowance is a benefit to judges. The SRC had argued that the car grant was abolished by the 2010 Constitution and has vowed to appeal the decision made by the three-judge bench. The SRC also accused the judges of conflict of interest.
