Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise first to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education regarding financial support to needy and vulnerable students enrolled in institutions of higher learning.

(2) State the parameters used by the Ministry of Education to place needy and vulnerable students in the various categories of funding. (3) Provide details on the financial support advanced to students in each category, indicating the precise amounts disbursed vis-à-vis the required tuition fee. (4).
