    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I rise to ask the Teachers Service Commission the following Question: (i) Could the Chairperson explain the new grading criteria for employment of teachers, which accords additional weight to intern teachers and yet, the opportunities for internship are only available to a few teachers under the age of 35 years against the very many qualified, aged and interested teachers? (ii) How will teachers above the age of 35 years access employment opportunities considering that the Teachers Service Commission, while carrying out the national recruitment exercise in July 2021, awarded 30 points to those who were on internship programme over and above other requirements and yet, for a teacher to qualify as an intern, one must be 35 years of age or below thus locking out teachers who are above 35 years of age from ever being enlisted? Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
