    "content": "On education, the President directed the Ministry to give the new dates of opening of schools. The Cabinet Secretary of Education has given the new dates as being January 4th 2021. However, the question that arises is whether we are prepared to open the schools as per the health guidelines provided by the Ministry of Health. The President directed that Members of Parliament, through the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF), should assist the schools in meeting the health guidelines: that is, sanitation and doing more infrastructure. I support the Member who spoke before me on the release of NG-CDF funds so that we are able to do this before January. It also calls for an increase of NG-CDF funds. The funds we have now cannot achieve the health guidelines in terms of more infrastructure and sanitation. The money is not enough to do the 100 per cent transition and cater for the health guidelines. So, if it is increased, it will enable Members of Parliament to achieve this."
