"content": " Hon. Speaker, could the Cabinet Secretary for Education – (a) Explain why the Ministry is yet to provide authorisation for purposes of conducting fresh parent association elections in various counties and sub- counties? (b) Provide a specific date when the parent association elections in various counties and sub-counties will be held? (c) State measures that have been put in place by the Ministry to ensure that in future, elections are conducted on a regular basis for the effective management of schools? Further, is the Cabinet secretary aware that TSC was to do promotions for more teachers but, somewhat, they have been curtailed by the National Treasury to do what? Otherwise, they would have been done because they do not need any monies from the National Treasury? They just need to use their own monies, Appropriations-in-Aid, to promote about 45,000 teachers. You being the overseeing Ministry, you could make a comment on that. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."

Omboko as follows: Paragraph 5 of the Third Schedule of the Basic Education Act, 2013 provides that there shall be established a National Parents Associations, County Parents Associations and Sub- County Parents Associations, elected by parents’ associations from schools through a delegate system. Just like other registered associations, the National Parents Association is guided by its own constitution. The Association does not require the authorisation of the Ministry of Education to hold elections at the county and sub-county levels. The constitution of the Association provides for the conduct of elections of its officials. As a Ministry, we are available, upon request, to provide any facilitative support to the extent possible, to enable the association to undertake free, fair and transparent elections in accordance with their constitutions."
