    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I thank the Mediation Committee for doing an amazing job. This now takes the Bill to the next level and it is going to be assented to. There are very few Bills from the Senate that end up at the National Assembly that proceed to the next level. This is a very big win for Senate. I join my colleagues in congratulating the Senior Counsel and the Members of this Committee for doing a brilliant job. If we have a professor there and a senior counsel, things cannot go wrong. That is why we need people who are committed in what they do and can deliver. The Chairperson of the Committee on Education is also a seasoned educationist. We had the right people in place. The fact that Bills and mediations are concluded shows that the change in leadership has worked in favour of the Senate in terms of the relationship between the National Assembly and Senate. That means at least there is goodwill from both sides to ensure the Bill moves to the next level. As Sen. (Dr.) Zani has ably put it, we can differ on principles, but we do not need to differ completely. We can still have a headway in ensuring that the right results come to fore. As this Bill is assented to, I think now ECDEs will be prioritized by the counties. This Bill will now bring uniformity across counties in terms of what needs to be done as opposed to how it is now."
