    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. Eregi Teachers College is under the Ministry of Education. Therefore, it is not the responsibility of the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology to take it over. Masinde Muliro University has to make a request to the Ministry of Education. The Ministry has to consider it and give consent for the upgrading before the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology can come in. Masinde Muliro University has not made the request nor has the authorities of the Eregi Teachers Training College indicated that they would like to convert their institution into a constituent college. Once such a request has been made and consent is granted, then the process of upgrading will be started. With regard to Sigalagala Technical Training Institute, the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology has again not received any request nor has Masinde Muliro University asked that this becomes a constituent college. I would like to tell the hon. Member that once those stages are followed in terms of making requests and acceptance and the Commission for Higher Education checks if the institution can become a university, the process will start. However, the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology cannot do anything until all those stages have been followed."
