    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. This Statement is from Sen. Pareno. I rise, pursuant to Standing Order No.48 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education on the decision to declassify Kajiado East, Kajiado Central and parts of Kajiado South as Arid and Semi-Arid Land (ASAL) areas by the Teacher’s Service Commission (TSC). In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Explain the decision to declassify Kajiado East, Kajiado Central and parts of Kajiado South as ASAL areas by the TSC thereby denying teachers serving in such areas benefits associated to ASAL classification and further making the area unattractive to teachers. (2) State whether relevant stakeholders were involved through public participation in the declassification process and table evidence of the same. (3) Provide details of the amount of Government and donor funding set aside for ASAL allowance, particularly to Kajiado County in the last 24 months indicating the timelines of the next disbursement to the ASAL areas. (4) Outline the targeted interventions to promote teachers holding administrative positions in ASAL and hardship areas giving the current state as promotions. (5) Confirm whether Kajiado East, Kajiado Central and parts of Kajiado South will be reinstated and re-classified as ASAL areas by the TSC in compliance with the provisions of Article 56 (b) of the Constitution. Thank you."
