"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, aware of the important role that education plays in the development of any country; noting with great concern that admission to under-graduate courses at public universities has become extremely competitive for thousands of students who attain minimum qualifications for admission, yet end up being shut out of university education; taking cognisance of the fact that students who come from marginalised areas are the most disadvantaged in that respect; thereby reinforcing the marginalisation of such areas; this House urges the Government to urgently consider: Equipping schools in marginalised areas with requisite facilities to increase their competitiveness in the national examinations; Creating a special bursary kitty for students from ASAL areas; and, Establishing one public university at the Coast, Eastern and North Eastern Provinces as a means of stimulating local interest in university education."
