    "content": "That is why we are saying if we get the right data from TSC, when the employment is being done, everybody would know that this is the number that is available and the information is there on a portal at the touch of a button. There will be no dark spaces in various places where then you do not get the information that is required. Even the public would know exactly what is going on. The TSC signed the 2021-2025 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) with the teachers' unions in the public sector. The CBA stipulates the terms of service of the teachers in the public sector, including the remuneration of their teachers in our primary schools. The 2021-2025 CBA will terminate on 30th of June, 2025. To this end, the TSC has commenced negotiations for the 2025-2029 CBA in line with the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC) guidelines. Accordingly, in line with Article 230(4) (b) of the Kenya Constitution, the TSC has submitted proposals to SRC, together with the request to conduct job evaluation in the public teaching sector, noting the new learning areas under CBC in order for it to inform the kind of remuneration that the teachers should get with this added responsibility. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, to the second part of the question, the Commission and SRC are planning to conduct a comprehensive job evaluation in the Financial Year 2025/2026 for the entire teaching service to ascertain the work of every job in the teaching service. The need for job evaluation has been informed by the change in the job content, the input and output factors, as well as the new jobs introduced by the competency-based education. The same will be done in a collaborative manner and all the stakeholders will be involved as required by law. I submit, Mr. Speaker."
