    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to join my colleagues in this issue. It is very important to have examination integrity in this country, which gives the Kenyan certificate what it requires. Examination issues are sensitive. As our children sit for examinations, we need to give them the confidence that being through school for those many years will be worthwhile. There is this issue of bringing in examinations and taking them out twice daily. I know that the Ministry of Education has taken steps towards the shortening of the distance between where the examination is taken and the school. For example, in my constituency, I have one sub-county. However, I have four centres within the same sub-county where examinations will be picked and dropped. Containers have been distributed in this country to the nearest police station. That makes it possible for examinations to be dropped and picked up in the morning and afternoon. Unless there are other cases, containers have been put up in every police station or where there is an administrative unit where examinations can be picked. Hon. Mbui, it is not practical that the Ministry will say that the distance is long. What is practical and on the ground right now, unless he has not visited his constituency recently, is that there are many centres where examinations can be picked. That is the position. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
