    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) There are no affiliate colleges of public universities in Kenya. (b) The Ministry has got adequate measures in place to ensure that standards in public universities are maintained and even improved, including the Commission for Higher Education, which has been accrediting private universities. We are recommending from now on that, that mandate also includes public universities. Each university has got a comprehensive internal mechanism of ensuring quality through the Senate. They will not start any new programmes until the Senate has sat and approved programmes that have to be started in any new institutions where universities have campuses. External assessors from other universities within the country, and from outside the country, are used. Public universities also have affiliate campuses with whom they have set up programmes, but they are not considered as colleges until they have been set up through the normal procedures like the ones that were announced by the Minister about two months ago. I have a long list which I could table before the House."
