"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we cannot review because it means we are destroying the strategic plans of institutions. When an institution has a strategic plan that covers a period between 2005 to 2015, it is only fair to allow it to implement it. We cannot destroy their strategic plan because they are moving towards fulfilling a dream and a goal. Therefore, we cannot discourage them from fulfilling their dream and goal. As I said, they can even start the same school in the same campus if the university so wishes. So, it is allowed that you may do this. When Moi University started Maseno University, it started with the School of Arts. Now they have engineering, School of Environmental Studies. The six members of the faculty from Moi University started those programmes in Maseno University. The same thing happened with Masinde Muliro University. Masinde Muliro School of Engineering was started by professors of engineering of Moi University, some of whom have gone back to Moi University. So, we do the sharing of resources to ensure that we establish the best that we can. Normally, it is the baby you want to nurse more than the mature one. However, this mature main campus can do anything. They can start any programme they so wish. However, the Strategic Plan of Moi University has stipulated what they want to achieve from 2005 onwards. It was just a matter of time before this happened. This happens to be the most appropriate time as far as the council is concerned."
