"content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, may I proceed? 7. The KUCCPS has allowed students to select courses from whichever university despite their differing financial backgrounds. The criteria envisaged under Section 56(3) of the Universities Act should not allow a public platform to be used to place students in private universities despite capacity existing in public universities. 8. Audit reports have also found the Ministry and the Fund in breach of Section 53 (1) and (2) of the Universities Act for not having the Fund directly disburse the monies to the public universities. 9. The Principal Secretary confirmed leading efforts to arrest the declining financial positions by commencing a round table meeting with the universities’ Chancellors, Vice-Chancellors and the Universities Fund last month. The Committee observed that these efforts are reactionary, may be cosmetic and from the preliminary reports in the public domain, they intend to raise fees in public universities rather than first streamlining public funds available as well as governance challenges. This is why I do not take the comments by the Leader of the Majority Party lightly, because this is a very serious national issue."
