    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank the Assistant Minister for the answer he has given. However, I would like to raise certain issues with him. He has denied the fact that there are certain institutions which are offering professional studies and yet they are not registered. I have one or two of such institutions in mind. These are: The East African School of media Studies which offers courses in media and awarding certificates up to the diploma level. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, these certificates are, however, not recognised by employers, both public and private. The other institution is Magneta Institute of Professional Studies. It also offers so many courses in various professional areas. The certificates are awarded by the institutions themselves. We do not have a national regulating body to examine these certificates. When the certificates are given to students or trainees, and they go out to the labour market, the certificates are not accepted or recognised by the employers. Parents are paying heavily to these institutions because they are desperately in need of this training---"
