    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. From the outset, I want to congratulate the Member of Parliament, Gathoni Wamuchomba for introducing this Motion which is not only important, but timely. We cannot overemphasise the purpose of having uniforms for our children and this has been dealt with since morning. I think this Motion is so important because it is speaking to two important areas concerning accessibility to education in this country. First, it is speaking on affordability. That we must guarantee every child in this country that they will afford school uniform. Second, parents should buy uniforms for their children at their convenience. Therefore, as we speak on this Motion, we should separate issues like colour. I think this is so diverse and many people have spoken with nostalgia about the colour of their school uniforms. This is about identity and the two most important issues are affordability and convenience. Through you, Hon. Temporary, once this Motion matures into a Bill, I guarantee my support. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
