    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think Mr. Mbugua may not have realized that before the introduction of free day secondary schools, there used to be a budget line of Kshs800 million available in the form of bursaries for vulnerable groups. Those were single orphaned children, the total orphaned children and the children who were in vulnerable areas, particularly in slum areas and the nomadic regions. When the free day secondary school was introduced, the total amount available in the current Budget, 2008/2009, was scaled down to Kshs500 million. That money is determined on the basis of the vulnerability of children in every given area. For instance, Budalang’I will, obviously get a little more consideration because of the flooding problem and so will nomadic areas. Children in some slum areas in Nairobi will obviously be catered for, together with children with special needs. Therefore, the funds for bursaries are already in the accounts of the respective constituencies."
