    "content": "Thank you, Senate Deputy Majority Leader for that information. You know what we mean by management and you know how governors will always mismanage and divert funds, when there is nothing specific. Come the future, if possible, it is important to ring-fence that funding. It is important that funds follow functions. In this case, to be identified for the various vote heads. Another important function led by the national Government under Clause 4(k), is monitoring and evaluation to ensure implementation is going on well. Clause 4(l) is on development and implementation of a national qualifications framework. The National Government is also obligated to check the progress and recognize qualifications and credit transfers and waivers. Madam Temporary Speaker, Clause 5 speaks to the obligations of county governments in developing Vocational Education and Training Centres (VETC). This is where the Kshs2 billion comes in. They play a critical role in procuring and putting in place the necessary infrastructure to ensure availability of learning and teaching resources in order to deliver these important training skills. They must be able to assist in formulation and implementation of specific programmes and policies, of course, borrowed from the National Government. County governments are also responsible for staffing the same institutions. As we interrogated governors, we realized some of them had employed untrained personnel. You remember in the beginning, I said these are very high skills. That is why we were beaten hands-down when it came to virtual meetings in the first instance. Some had employed untrained ones so that they can pay peanuts. Despite the fact that the Ministry set out a scheme of service, we found that some governors still move around without a scheme. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
