    "content": "However, it does not take care of the welfare of the teachers. Secondly, my colleague is also amending section 38 of the Act by adding section 2(a) of that 38, which is essentially saying that - when the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) is considering or county Governments are considering adding revenue, they should not come out arbitrarily but look at issues such as inflation, minimum wage and cost of living. This is a very interesting concept that my colleague is bringing in terms of the issue of minimum wage. Most of our ECDE teachers should essentially be paid more money. Consequently, when you are talking about the minimum wage, that should have been defined better. I thank my colleague for doing that.

We should not only look at the facilities that they work on, but also at giving teachers more money.
