"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise, pursuant to Standing Order 48(1), to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education regarding the status of the Kenya Engineering Technology Registration Board (KETRB). In the Statement, the Committee should - (1) State the reason(s) for non-reconstitution of the KETRB more than two years after the term of the first Board ended on 24th October, 2019. (2) Elucidate on when a new Board will be appointed to enable execution of its mandate as outlined in Section 5 of the Engineering Technology Act, 2016. (3) Explain the rationale behind placing the said Board under the Ministry of Education, whereas other similar boards which regulate professionals who work in conjunction with KETRB, such as the Engineers Board of Kenya (EBK), Kenya Roads Board (KRB) and the Board of Registration of Architects & Quantity Surveyors (BORAQS) are all under the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing, Urban Development and Public Works. (4) Outline the measures put in place by the Ministry of Education, if any, to ensure that the activities of KETRB are funded by the Government in order to ease the burden on members and effectively regulate the practice of engineering technology in the country."
