    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that some schools in Molo, Mt. Elgon and Tana River have been affected by the insecurity witnessed in those areas. In Molo, four primary schools have been affected. Three schools have been closed in Tana River while learning in three other schools has been adversely affected. In Mt. Elgon District, four secondary schools and 11 primary schools have been closed, while some pupils in nine other primary schools have not been attending classes as they have moved with their parents to safer areas. In some areas, affected pupils and students have been relocated to schools in secure areas to ensure they resume classes. Teachers will undertake appropriate remedial activities to have the syllabus covered and the children prepared for national examinations. (b) The Ministry will not lower entry points to public universities in the insecurity prone areas. The Joint Admissions Board (JAB) - this is the business of the universities - has already implemented the lowering of cut-off points under the affirmative action, but that does not include considerations such as insecurity."
