    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I rise to ask Question No. 313 of 2021 to the Cabinet Secretary for Education: (i) Considering the high cost of school uniform in the country, which has in turn significantly led to the increased cost of learning in schools, could the Ministry consider regulating and standardizing the cost of school uniforms to make them affordable? (ii) What measures is the Ministry putting in place to ensure that children are not denied an opportunity to join school, learn and complete their education for lack of uniform? (iii) Could the Cabinet Secretary consider the use of existing institutions such as the National Youth Service, RIVATEX East Africa Limited, Kenya Prisons Service workshops or such other established institutions for production of school uniform at subsidized prices that the majority of parents can afford? (iv) What is the Ministry’s policy regarding the provision of other items required of pupils and students as part of tuition, boarding and core curriculum materials? I thank you, Hon. Speaker"
