    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I had the same discussion in the morning. First and foremost, issues that touch on teachers are very critical to most of us, especially in my constituency of Chepalungu where we have about 4000 teachers. I look at this programme in four categories. One, the cost. I am a Member of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. Labour practices demand that an employer who comes up with compulsory employee capacity strengthening, should plan to shoulder the attendant cost of the training. When they say this training’s cost is Kshs 6000, there is the cost of transport and there is the cost of maintenance. So, in reality a teacher will inject about Kshs 60,000 per semester and the scheme is going for about 30 years. They do the first quarter for five years and subsequently up to 30 years. Why do you want to train a teacher who is 50 years? He is almost retiring and you are telling him… Mr. Speaker, kindly add me some time."
