    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to thank the Hon. Member for raising this issue. The Departmental Committee on Education has been seized of this matter several times. A number of teachers, because of the 45 years rule, have failed to be employed. Three years ago, the Committee met and discussed the issue and we made it clear that a teacher needs to be employed even if he has two years before retirement. This is an issue that cuts across the country. Immediately we are back from recess – we are going today for recess – we shall furnish this House with enough information on the same. We shall invite the TSC, the Hon. Member and other interested Members to appear before the Committee so that we interrogate this issue further and develop a proper policy on employment of teachers, especially with regard to their age. Thank you."
