    "content": "implementation of the suggestions provided by Quality Assurance Officers following the tragedy of 2022. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I implore the Ministry of Education, the County Government and the school administration to work together in addressing this issue and implementing the necessary improvements to safeguard the health of our students. This includes regular inspections of food and water sources, stricter hygiene standards, and the establishment of a system to monitor and report potential health hazards. Further, it is essential that we provide adequate resources and support to schools, especially in rural areas, to ensure that they have the necessary infrastructure and facilities to maintain high standards of cleanliness and safety. These include access to clean water, proper sanitation facilities, and well-maintained kitchens and dining areas. Mr. Speaker, Sir, education is a fundamental right for every child, and it is our duty, as leaders and representatives, to create a safe and conducive environment for learning. We must also work to raise awareness among students, staff and parents about the importance of maintaining proper hygiene and reporting any signs of illness or potential health hazards. In conclusion, the tragic events at Mukumu Girls High School serve as a sobering reminder of the critical need to address our children’s health and safety in schools across the nation. It is our obligation to make sure that every child has the opportunity to grow and learn in a safe setting, free from the fear of illness or harm. Mr. Speaker, Sir, let us rally together, committed to ensuring the safety of our children, and fight tirelessly to bring about long-lasting improvements that will benefit generations to come. I thank you. I will proceed with the second Statement."
