"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute. I support the Appropriation Bill because it is very healthy and timely. We need to guarantee Government operations and services to our people. We need drugs in our hospitals and roads to be improved. We also need security to be enhanced in the country. I also support the very appropriate consultations that have been initiated by His Excellency the President, the Right Honourable Prime Minister, the Vice- President and Minister for Home Affairs and the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, to look for a solution to the strike by our teachers. It is worth noting that there have been fruitful deliberations. The intention of the Government is to employ additional 20,000 teachers. The sooner that number is employed the better. That is because we do not want to compromise the standards of KCPE and KCSE this year. It is also important, as I conclude, to note that our teachers are out on lawful demonstrations. Therefore, it is important that those teachers are not harassed by security agents as they move about doing their demonstrations. With those remarks, I support."
