Ogamba","speaker_title":"The Cabinet Secretary for Education","speaker":null,"content":"We have a meeting this afternoon. So, I requested that you allow me to finish by 1.00 p.m., so that I can go and have that meeting with them and solve that problem. Sen. Okenyuri asked a question about special needs schools. The problem falls across the board. So, even in special needs schools, the amount of top-up that they are supposed to get is limited. The problem is the same. It cuts across the board. We receive the disbursements as a block, then, we allocate them to the number of students that we have. There has always been a deficit. We are trying as much as possible to see whether there is a way that we can have these figures ring-fenced so that in the future, we can at least be sure that our education system does not face the number of crises that it faces every year, every time. I think that was the last question."}
