    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I wish to ask Question No. 352/2020 on behalf of the Member for Nyando, Hon. Jared Okelo, which is directed to the Cabinet Secretary for Education: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide details and breakdown of disbursement of school infrastructure funds since 2013, including specific amounts allocated to each school? (ii) Could the Cabinet Secretary explain the circumstances that led to the loss of funds, estimated at over Ksh1 billion in every year, since the inception of the Basic Education Capitation Programme, giving details of the exact amount lost and the person culpable for the loss? (iii) Could the Cabinet Secretary further explain whether the Ministry engaged the services of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) in carrying out investigations, and if so, what progress has been made so far? (iv) What measures is the Ministry taking to address cases of overpricing of items meant for schools, in particular the prices of the recently conceptualised Government- funded desks and chairs, which are being procured at the rate of Ksh1, 700 per piece in some cases?"
