    "content": "There is need for the Committee led by Sen. Kasanga to have a matrix of operation, where they are going to look at information from schools and see that programmes are running well. The emphasis should be on children with disabilities. They could tell you that they have sign language interpreters, but we have different and varied categories of disabilities. All types of disabilities need to be addressed because we have children with disabilities in households whose parents do not know what to do with them. The Ministry of Education has not communicated to schools. If you ask heads of schools, they will tell you that no communication has come from the Ministry. They should tell Kenyans exactly what they have done in terms of preparing to reopen. Let them not talk about desks because it is irrelevant in a situation where there is no infrastructure or classrooms and where classrooms made of mud are falling on the learners. Let them tell us clearly because the children of the common man must be our concern. As a Senate, we must make a difference by ensuring that the children not only go back to school, but also get quality education and are safe in the learning environment. I thank this Committee and their time should be extended. As the Committee on Education, we are not able to have a breakthrough with the Ministry and the relevant stakeholders. I support."
