    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) There is no school in the district that has been condemned by the Ministry of Health due to buildings being unsuitable for human habitation. However, Katakwa Primary School was assessed and inspected on 3rd April, 2006, by the public health technicians and also inspected again on 7th April, 2006, by the District Works Officer. Both recommended 12 new classrooms to be built since the old building had cracks and would be uneconomical to repair. (b) I am aware that the two dormitories at St. Monica Chakol Girls Secondary School in Teso District, and not three, were burnt down on the morning of Sunday, 7th May, 2006. The two dormitories were Okoloi and Ojaamong, housing 128 students. The DEB/BOG held an emergency meeting on 7th May, 2006 and managed to arrange for alternative accommodation and learning is back to normal. (c) I am further aware that between 1st February and 28th May, 2006 strong winds caused the destruction of certain structures in six primary schools which the Member of Parliament knows about. (d) The Ministry has allocated some money using repair and maintenance funds to do some of the repairs. The school should utilise these funds for that. The school's management committee and parents, including the Member of Parliament, have been requested to mobilise resources to address such emergency cases."
