    "content": " Well, she has moved. Hon. Temporary Speaker, this Motion addresses a critical gap in our education funding, specifically through bursaries as they are administered. It acknowledges that while bursaries play a vital role in helping disadvantaged students access education, major challenges still prevent these funds from reaching their full potential. What are the challenges of the current system? They are well- known. The lack of standardisation, transparency and timely disbursement of funds are major concerns. We get numerous reports from our constituencies about delays in receiving bursaries. In some cases, students completely miss out on their education due to the inconsistencies in the system. The second challenge is the fragmented nature of the bursary schemes, such as the NG- CDF, the county government bursaries, the National Government Affirmative Action Fund, and the Presidential Secondary School Bursary. This means there is a duplication of effort, a lack of coordination from these different agencies, and inefficiencies in the disbursement The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
