    "content": "It is important that we use a board of governors, so that we can review. My learned seniors in this House, including Sen. Murkomen, my lecturer, told me that there should always be administrative action. However, there should be a process of appealing and looking for a way, so that one cannot just wake up one day and say that because Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr.’s college is operational, we need to cancel the license. The county executive should not be the last call of the cancellation of that process. I am happy that we have a board of governors, the county executive and a county education board. I think that it is very important that we use them so that there is a review process before one’s license is cancelled. Secondly, in Clause 18 it says that they will only consider an application within 30 days. I think it should be 90 days, so that there is a process before one is issued with a final license. They should be given an interim license of 90 days to see if they comply. It is a common standard practice. If it is faith based, sponsored or public institution, we will cross check against a checklist of what they should have done. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I visited a vocational training center in a place called Ol’Lenguse somewhere in Timboroa. That place is so unique. I want to challenge the Committee and the counties. They have been able to sustain themselves by making things like furniture and selling them to generate their own income. I do not think these vocational training centers should be the only training ground. When I used to Chair the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, we used to go to prisons, and they make good furniture. Why should we import things from China? If you come to our offices, we only have Chinese furniture and they break down after one or two days, whereas we are eating well and endowed. Perhaps the seats made in China are not as strong as the ones made in prisons."
