"content": "Secondly, we noted as I had said earlier, that the Ministry is still allocating a lot of funds to the HELB, yet it is a revolving fund, hence the need for the Board to be self- reliant in the near future. As a Committee, we believe that research and development are essential prerequisites to the transformation of Kenya into a knowledge-based society. While appreciating the Ministryâs proposed establishment of the Kenya National Research Foundation (KNREF), the Committee recommends that the Minister fast-tracks the laying of the same Bill in Parliament. The Committee also lauds the initiative by the Minister to open up the constituent colleges as I had earlier on stated. In this respect, the Committee is hopeful that the proposed Universitiesâ Bill, together with reviewed Commission for Higher Education (CHE) Bill, shall be tabled as soon as possible to empower the CHE to undertake the most crucial role that every other Kenyan is asking about; the expansion of the universities without compromising quality, that is key."
