"content": "Firstly, the principals were concerned that the amount of capitation they are getting to run their schools is not enough. Secondly, they were complaining that the capitation money always comes in late; they end up incurring expenses that they do not have the money for. Thirdly, they raised a concern that many of the learners in Kenya are not registered under the system of National Education Management Information System (NEMIS), which is a digital system of registering students because some of them do not have birth certificates. This is not the fault of the principals or the parents because it is a State given document. Fourthly, the principals alluded to the fact that from 2018, the amount of money they are getting as capitation was reduced by the Ministry of Education. They have been getting less money."

My question is; the Budget lines are going on and time is running out, what are we going to do? What advice would you give so that we provide an answer to the principals so that they are able to run their schools? Thank you, Hon. Speaker."

The Petition is now with the Public Petitions Committee that has a backlog of work. If you had filed a Question in the same terms that you have elucidated to the Committee on Education, Hon. Melly is here and he is quite an efficient Chairman, he could have handled it. But since you chose to make the bed the way you did, you just lie on it. Where is the Leader of the Majority Party? Yes, Leader of the Minority Party."

"content": " Hon. Speaker, I agree with your advice. The matter is clearly an issue of public notoriety and since schools are opening next week on Monday, the able Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education can comment on it. They should have opened this week on Monday, but due to the raging floods, the opening of school was postponed by a week. Would it be in order for you to direct Hon. Melly to liaise with the Ministry of Education and come up with a definite position on this matter of capitation? Schools will not run because there is no money and the principals are helpless. How do we expect principals and school managers to run these schools without money? That is a matter that is so urgent that perhaps Hon. Melly could pronounce himself on it as we wait for the Public Petitions Committee to do its work. Even as we wait for the Public Petitions Committee to do its work. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
