    "content": "(b) is talking about the type of instructors that are there, the qualifications, the registration. Clause 15 talks about registration which is done under technical vocational education and training authority boards for accreditation from the National Government. Clause 15(2) is setting out how one can apply the form that is used to apply for accreditation. Clause 15(3) is speaking about the type of curriculum that must be set out by the Cabinet Secretary. The curriculum as I said earlier is actually the role of the national Government so that we have standardization of vocational training right across the country. Clause 16 speaks to cancellation of a license and registration. In the past we would have people waking up and going to cancel the certificate. However here there are procedures to be followed before a certificate to provide vocational education training is cancelled. As I said earlier, for these vocational education training institutions, there are those that are run by private entities and those by public entities. We can find that at times there are those that are have violated the Act and they must be cancelled. However, they must be given a chance to explain. In this case they must have shown signs of criminal activity, they could have shown that they have closed down without specifying the reason why. Clause 16 (2) is also speaking to the role of the executive committee member on how to go about this. The committee member must ensure that the licenses that are issued, the institution must have met the requirements before such licenses are issued. Clause 17 speaks of the procedures of notice of non-compliance. Just before we cancel we give a notice. Under Clause 17(2) is how it should be done in writing and under information, the steps to be taken, time taken. Clause 17(2)(a) speaks to how a period can be extended with the requirement of that person whose institution was going to be shut down. Clause 18 is speaking to closure of a vocational education and training centre. This cannot be done without consultation. Here, the county executive member must include the national Government. That goes all the way up to (4) which is still speaking to how closure will be brought. Number 3 is speaking to the manner in which those other fields are handled before the final closure. Clause 19 is speaking to the penalty, how if a person contravenes the provisions of 10(3) of this Act, that person commits an offence liable to a fine not exceeding Kshs5 million and imprisonment of a term not exceeding three years or both. Part 3 is speaking to management of vocational education and training. This one starts with Clause 20 where each county government is responsible for the overall management or cause management through a board of management. Clause 20(2) is speaking to how a committee member shall be able to determine the type of management that must be in every institution. Clause 21 sets out the members that must be in the board of management. Clause 21(2) is talking about how the board is not a corporate entity, the membership of that board, how the board is elected. Under (4) it is showing how the county executive shall appoint the board members through a county seat. Clause 22 is speaking to functions of the board. The provisions of the division, manage the properties, manage vocational training, develop and implement vocational education and training strategy plan, mobilize resources, regulate enrollment, prepare 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."
