    "content": "I will proceed, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My good friend, those sub-locations are found in wards. I am sure the Chair understands what I am talking about. That synergy needs to be established, so that one arm of Government does not confer a benefit to employees in their department while another Arms of Government strip employees of benefits from the same region. The second issue on that Statement is on Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) scheme of service. That is a matter that this House must pronounce itself on loudly. A resolution was passed in this House to have a standard scheme of service rolled out by all the counties, so that we do not have a county paying ECDE teachers Kshs10,000 a month through M-pesa and another one pays Kshs50,000 through payroll. The scheme of service for ECDE teachers is not something that should be implemented at the whim of a sitting governor. What will happen if we do not have that synergy and clarity? Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a reason ECDE is a devolved function. It is so that children have a strong base on the right to education from childhood. If we do not have a scheme of service for ECDE teachers running across all the counties, there will be serious discrimination and the purpose of devolving ECDE will be beaten. We must find a way of ensuring the ECDE scheme of service is rolled out uniformly across the counties. I thank you."
