    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the last Parliament, all hon. Members were requested by the Ministry to nominate one polytechnic per constituency. Therefore, one polytechnic per constituency was to be the one that would receive the minimum Kshs1 million worth of equipment as I mentioned. There are many other polytechnics that also seek support directly, or through their committees, and even through their local civic leaders in addition to the efforts that are made by hon. Members. The Ministry is encouraging hon. Members to also work in collaboration with their councillors, so that the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and the Local Authority Transfer Fund (LATF) are utilised to upgrade some of those polytechnics. This will ensure that when the Ministry chips in, perhaps through top- up grants or allocation of instructors, it is in addition to the local efforts. There are many polytechnics in all the constituencies that deserve to be supported."
