    "content": "The application portal is self-guiding with clear steps and alternatives. Applicants are given an opportunity to apply for a scholarship, a loan, or both. Information provided by the applicant is broadly the same, apart from loan applicants requiring two guarantors. I also have a very detailed 48-page document addressing many of those issues. This morning, the Cabinet Secretary delivered it to the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. I will table this document should any Member seek information, including steps the Ministry is taking in line with what Members were asking here. The document also contains what the Ministry is doing for publicity strategies to inform Kenyans through traditional media channels like the print media, television, radio, community radio stations, digital channels, bulk SMS to both university and Technical and Vocation Education Training (TVET) students, online forums, Twitter spaces, mashinani initiatives, churches, mosques, Huduma Centres and cyber cafes. They use various strategies to ensure they disseminate much information to our students. As we go on recess to access, it will be good to inform our students back in our constituencies to access this information either from Huduma Centres, the Ministry’s website, other portals of HELB, and KUCCPS. All that information is here, and I will be tabling this document for Members to look at and disseminate it to their constituents, many of whom are our voters. Those without identity cards are 1,000 students. They will be voters by the time we get to the next election. You will be serving your voters by disseminating this information to them. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will move if you allow me."
