"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support the Petition by Mr. Roberts Wekesa on what the TSC is doing to the members of the teaching profession. The TSC played a very major role in the destruction of the biggest trade union for teachers called KNUT. It was a giant ten years ago. If you go all over the country right now, you will find that KNUT offices have been shut. They had maybe 20 employees, but they have been left with one employee. Some are closed and gathering dust. Some are unable to pay even rent because of what the TSC did. My understanding of a tripartite agreement is that there has to be the employer, that is TSC, the employee who is a teacher and then their union. How is it possible that TSC can purport to decide on behalf of the employees, where their money is taken? I think the TSC is trying to make it compulsory for teachers to be in certain unions, which is totally against the law. I support those employees of special needs education. The TSC should stop the deductions immediately and refund all the money that it has taken. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
