    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the hon. Member allow me to respond to the Chair’s concern so that it is very clear? From the Strategic Plan of 2005- 2015, this school was going to be relocated anyway. At the time it was being relocated, Chepkoilel had become a university college. Even when you have a campus teaching education you can also have education being taught elsewhere. That has happened in other universities where you can start a programme and also initiate a new one. It is how you want to rearrange it. However, the main reason why it was moved to Chepkoilel was not so that Moi University stops teaching forestry courses there. No! It is because in the Strategic Plan, it was going to be relocated. This is because the School of Environmental Studies was supposed to cohabit with the School of Forestry and form the Premier College of Natural Resources. By 2005, it was noted that it was very important to put together the School of Environmental Studies and the School of Forestry to form the School of Natural Resources which is what is going on the world over. This is because when you split it, you are only splitting the small faculties that you have. But we know there are a lot of integrations in these courses and human resources do not become optimal because everybody will be oscillating between campuses. So, this is a decision that was made prudently to make sure that a School of Natural Resources is put in place, so that we can run the two programmes together."
