"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a)The Ministry, in consultation with education stakeholders continuously reviews curriculum for both primary and secondary schools and ensures that emerging issues are captured and incorporated as topics or new subjects. In some cases the issues become cross-cutting throughout the whole curriculum, for example, HIV/AIDS. The Kenya Instutute of Education approves school books and other instructional materials carrying the KIE logo. Parents are, therefore, requested to ensure that the books they buy are KIE-approved. (b) It is definitely ideal to have the centres set up or decentralized for production of school books and other instructional materials. The Ministry has published the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development Bill, 2012, and it is awaiting enactment into law by Parliament. The hon. Member is, therefore, requested to give his input towards actualization of this idea of decentralizing the functions of the KIE."
