    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Let me thank my colleague for having brought this important Motion to the House. I, personally, look forward to the day when this country will be able to introduce free secondary education. Yesterday was Labour Day and the President, in his Speech, mentioned that the Government was going to scrap tuition fees in secondary education. I know that there has been a lot of excitement about this matter. However, we need to know exactly the true implication of this. The President said that tuition fees in secondary schools will be abolished from January, 2008. The amount which has been set aside to cater for this is Kshs4.3 billion and the number of schools to be affected is 4,000. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, what is the implication of this? In the first place, tuition fees forms only 50 per cent of the school fees paid in a day school. May 2, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 1051"
