    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me the opportunity to come to the House and respond to the concerns by the Hon. Members and the public. I am quite grateful for the support that I have been getting from the Members of Parliament. I also thank you for the support you have given to the Ministry in terms of the infrastructure development that you have done in the various constituencies that we have visited. You have constructed a good number of classrooms and other infrastructure. We pray that we will continue with that collaboration and support because those are our children. We will do everything possible as a Ministry to ensure that the partnership continues, and it bears fruit. On the issue of the Imara Daima TVET, I will find out the status of that purchase and get back to you because I do not have data or facts relating to that particular question. On the issue of the registration of junior secondary schools that are far apart, the initial registration was done based on a certain criterion. That criterion is being reviewed. We are doing continuous registration of junior secondary schools as we meet the criteria. That registration is ongoing. We will not deny them the registration if they meet the required criterion in terms of numbers. We are also reducing the distances. On the issue of localised teachers, that programme was being implemented by TSC. We will find out why that has not been completed. It is an ongoing process. The second programme was started sometimes back. It is true that some of the projects that they were doing have stalled and thus, have not been completed. There is an ongoing audit. Once we conclude the audit, both physical and otherwise, we will decide how to proceed and complete those projects, and what is going to be done with the issues that are related to any fraud or corruption that might have happened leading to their collapse. All in all, I am grateful for your support, and I am available for any clarifications that the Members might require to continue serving Kenyans together. Thank you and God bless."
