"content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, I agree with Hon. Nyenze. In the education sector, we have opportunities that are forgone. If TSC directed that the teachers upgrade, get a diploma certificate and are back and yet there is no advantage gained, then it is not proper. Since the teachers gained the pedagogical skills and the technical know-how, they deserve some salary increment. This is to show that they have taken 1,500 hours and paid for tuition. As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Education, and the Committee as a whole, that is something that we need to pursue. This is to ensure that those teachers are adequately compensated for the acquisition of new skills and the time taken for the training. We must appreciate that they are now better teachers than those who have not undergone that training. Hon. Nyenze, you have a point. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will pursue that. Thank you."
