    "content": "The books of accounts of Jaramogi Oginga Odinga University of Science and Technology disclose a dinner allowance of Ksh55,250 paid to an officer who was involved in the preparation of data with the Commission for University Education within the university precincts. That is contrary to Section 21(11) of the University Collective Bargain Agreement of 2013-2017, that states that meal allowances shall be paid to members of academic staff who are working out of their duty station where half of subsistence allowance is not paid. The Committee finds that expenditure unlawful and surcharges the accounting officer at the time the Ksh55,250 was given. Having noted the proceedings of the Public Investment Committee on Governance and Education and the examination of the Report of the Auditor-General on the financial statements of State corporations for the 2018/2019, 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 financial years, I beg to move and urge the House to adopt this Report. We are coming up with a Bill to address the gaps in education funding. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I am sure you have seen the Bill in the Order Paper. I beg to move and call upon my leader, my Deputy Whip of the Minority Party, Hon. Mark Mwenje, who is our wakili in the Committee, to second. Thank you."
