    "content": "of the Constitution, this House approves the appointment of the following persons as Principal Secretaries: (i) Dr. Belio Kipsang, State Department for Basic Education. (ii) Ms. Esther Thaara Muoria, State Department for Technical and Vocational Education and Training. (iii) Ms. Beatrice Inyangala, State Department for Higher Education and Research. The Departmental Committee on Education and Research sat and had several meetings. It found that the three officers, who have held senior positions in Government and in the private sector, were qualified in terms of knowledge, understanding and even in the way they presented themselves. The Committee carefully looked into the three officers. Dr. Belio Kipsang has worked as a Principal Secretary in the education sector and also in the Northern Corridor and ASAL areas. He demonstrated a lot of knowledge, especially on issues of basic education and the education sector at large. Ms. Thaara Muoria is a seasoned professional having worked at the university at a senior position as a researcher. She has also worked as an Academic Registrar at the Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT). She has worked in various sectors of Government and demonstrated a lot of knowledge in technical education and training. Therefore, she qualifies to be in that position. Ms. Beatrice Inyangala is a seasoned university don. She is a lecturer of great repute. She has written many books on university pedagogy and teaching. Members looked at the papers of the three nominees, especially on matters of education as well as their constitutional qualifications. We found that the three officers were very qualified and suitable to serve as Principal Secretaries in the various sectors. They all demonstrated knowledge and understanding of the sectors that they will have a mandate over. I beg to move and ask Hon. Malulu Injendi, the Vice-Chairperson of the Committee, to second."
