    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The formation of Boards of Governors (BOGs) is done in accordance with the provisions of the Education Act, Cap.211 which empowers only the Minister for Education to make the appointment. We realised that, that takes very long and unfortunately, this law was enacted when we had only a few secondary schools at Independence. We are trying to review this law, insisting that BOGs should be appointed within 21 days. (b) The appointment of the BOG of Sega Girls Secondary School was finalised and the letters dispatched through the DEO. The processed letters were collected on the 10th of April, 2006 by the District Quality Assurance Officer. However, with regards to Moi Uloma Girls Secondary School, there was a delay because the minutes for appointment forwarded on the 3rd of February, 2006 did not adhere to the provisions of the Education Act, Cap 211, and subsequent Ministerial guidelines. However, upon compliance, the BOG was appointed on the 18th of May, 2006 and the letters were dispatched through the DEO, Siaya."
