    "content": "Colleges to secondary schools (S1), locking other A-Levels primary school teachers P1, who had not attended the course. This resulted to complaints by the primary school teachers, P1 A-Level trained teachers. THAT, another group of approved teachers ATSIV were also promoted in the year 1996. The then scheme of service for non-graduate teachers stipulated that the existing secondary school teachers, that is, S1 promoted to primary school teachers P1, were to convert to approved Teachers IV, while teachers with diploma certificates to convert to diploma teachers. Additionally, in July 2010, the primary school teachers, P1, were also promoted, but were not issued with promotion letters. THAT, the teachers were promoted in the year 1996 and are yet to receive their salary arrears since the date of promotion, which is contrary to standard labour practices. THAT, the Petitioners have made efforts to have this matter addressed by relevant authorities, and all of which have failed to give a satisfactory response. The Petitions, therefore, pray to the Senate that it intervenes in this matter, with a view to recommending to the National Treasury and Economic Planning to factor in budget, to enable payment of salary arrears to the teachers. Hon. Senators, pursuant to Standing Order No.237, I shall allow comments, observations and clarifications in relation to the Petition for not more than 30 minutes. Hon. Senators, you may walk in."
