    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is the list of the titled schools per county No.1 to 47 on page two and three of my report. I have given the total numbers of what we have titled and where we are supposed to be at. We have 31,000 schools and only 5,226 public schools have titles. T That means that we have a long way to go. It should be noted that this list is not conclusive. This is what I was able to get and I am yet to verify the full details, but it will not be far from what page three is showing as the totals, with a reservation of 5,799. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kirinyaga County has 335 public schools as at 2019. The audit report by the multi-agency group revealed that the county has 180 public primary schools and 155 public secondary schools. Seventy-eight schools have been titled and 157 are reservations for titling while 257 are yet to be titled. Table two and three show the primary and secondary schools issued with titles. When I say reservations or reserved for public use as public schools, it means that the NLC has already reserved them and a gazette notice issued thereafter. The primary schools titled are shown on page four and the list is there of the total number of schools in Kirinyaga and the constituencies are listed for public primary schools. For the secondary schools, it is on page five as shown there, all the way to page six. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the list of schools whose land had issues like pending court cases are shown on page six, paragraph two. Nguguini Secondary School in Kirinyaga has a pending case No.34 of 2016. There is Kiarugu Primary School and Rwangondu Primary School that have a boundaries dispute. These are things we can do within the ambit of my Ministry. I will undertake to look at that as well as the pending cases to see whether there can be a resolution. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I believe the hon. Senator who brought this question is aware of this and could be of great assistance in resolution of the case. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to proceed to Question No.2."
