    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for the first part of providing the particularised list of those schools. We will provide you with that list and send it to you so that it aligns with the information we have given. Now, we do work with county governments because water and sanitation are devolved functions. So, we try to work with them to provide some of these facilities to the schools. We also work with the Ministry of Water and the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum to ensure that most of our schools, through the Last Mile Programme, are connected to power. We are doing all that we can to ensure that all our schools are connected to power or solar and that water is also provided. In terms of capitation and utilisation, we do have accounting programmes or standards that once the funds are released to schools, they have to do returns, and accounting is done. The Auditor-General audits all the money to confirm that the amount that is given to schools has been utilised properly. Yes, we agree in the counties, we have a lot of drugs, and it is everywhere. The question of fences as an infrastructure requirement is because of financial and budgetary limitations. We will continue looking for resources and working together as a team to ensure that our schools are fenced. Thank you."
