    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me the opportunity. There have been quite a number of concerns from teachers, especially from Makueni. One thing which is clear about this matter is that there was no public participation. Second, is the distribution of the universities. Nowadays, Kenya has universities all over, from Coast to Nairobi, Central Kenya and Western Kenya. There are many universities where this matter can be conducted. Although the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) does a similar thing, first, it is in the Law Society of Kenya Act and the Regulations. Secondly, it is distinguishable from what the TSC is trying to do for quite a number of reasons. Lawyers do not have a common employer, but teachers do. Therefore, if there is proper public participation, there will be proper guidelines on this matter because refresher courses are important. However, they must be handled in a humane manner, within the law and the Constitution. I support the Petition and believe that the Committee and this House have the capacity to resolve this matter which touches on the teachers of Kenya."
