    "content": " Oh, you are there? You were supposed to have convened a meeting with the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Economic Planning, and the Attorney-General, this week. That meeting never took place for whatever reasons. You owe us, as Parliament. You should have come back and explained why the meeting never took place and when it would take place. In under two weeks, without necessarily pre-empting debate, this House will be going on long recess. We are facing a serious threat for the future of our children. I heard Hon. Ichung’wah say that he is not sure how the children will report to school on 23rd January 2023. The children will not only have problems reporting to school on 23rd January 2023 but just to let you know that some of them have spent the whole of Third Term at home. The children of poor Kenyans have spent the whole of Third Term at home on account of lack of school fees which was previously catered for by the NG-CDF. They are facing a situation where they will, again, not report to school for the First Term on 23rd January 2023. This is a serious matter. I suppose and hope that this House will come up with a solution to address the immediate problem we are facing even as we addressed the long-term problem by entrenching the NG-CDF and these other funds in the Constitution. With those remarks, I support."
