"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to the debate on this Bill from the Senate that wishes to provide a framework for establishment of systems for the administration of ECDs within the county. As we discuss this Bill, we have to remember that there is fundamental right to free and compulsory basic education enshrined under Article 53 of the Constitution and, clearly, this is part of it because ECD is part of basic education. Clause 3 of the Bill talks about the provisions of a framework for the establishment of comprehensive ECD and education system by county governments. The reason I have read this Bill is because we have noted that administrators in some schools have a tendency of administering admission examination. I am happy that this Bill prohibits the use of entry exams for those young learners. That is one of the things that a lot of our institutions have been trying to use to make money.
