    "content": "The main concern to my committee, and this came as a shock, and we hope that it was an anomaly that can be immediately corrected, is the replacement of the regular employment of teachers by what is now being termed as interns. It is a big anomaly to treat teachers completely different from the rest of the civil servants. We are seeing civil servants being employed in this country and this is provided for in the Budget of this year. Unfortunately, employment of teachers was froozen. We recommend, as a Committee, that the Minister for Education moves with speed and consults fully with the Deputy Prime Minister and Minster for Finance and brings a Motion of a Supplementary Budget to this House latest September, 2009, so that this House, can adopt it and allow for teachers to be employed. The interns should be a top up to the normal employment of teachers. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while applauding the idea of the construction of seven primary schools and three secondary schools for IDPs in Solio Ranch, the Committee noted that the project has a cross-cutting effect amongst the Ministry of State for Special Programmes, the Office of the President and the Ministry of Education. The Committee, therefore, recommends that the project be undertaken only when the purchase of the said land for settlement is confirmed to ensure that no double allocation is done by the other Ministries in question and any other donor. The Committee also noted with concern the delay in the completion of the construction of the Teachersâ Service Commissions Headquarters and recommends that the contractor be surcharged if he fails to comply as per the set timeframe of August 2009 and the funds utilized to ensure that the new headquarters is completed since no allocation was made to that respect in this new financial year. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Committee also noted with appreciation the introduction of the free primary education and the free secondary education. However, we noted with concern the perennial delay in the release of funds for the free primary and secondary education to our institutions. Therefore, we urge the Minister to release the funds on time or before opening of schools beginning September, 2009. I would also like to thank the Minister because the Adult Education Programme was brought under the Ministry of Education. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Motion."
