    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to take this opportunity to thank the Minister for bringing this Bill to this House and working very hard with his staff to ensure that this Bill has undergone the right process. I also want to thank the TSC officers for having worked with us very closely as the Members of the Committee on Education, Science and Technology. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I expect the TSC to take control of the management of teaching in this country. We want to see improvement in the management of our educational system in this country, particularly as regards performance management. I wish to see that now that the TSC has the powers to control and deal with the teachers directly, performance management must be put in place, so that we see our schools managed well or like corporate organizations. I also want to appeal to the Minister for Finance to consider recruitment of teachers. This is a very important issue on which the Ministry of Finance must work with Members of Parliament and our committee to see that teachers are recruited for our students and pupils to get the right education. Finally, I want to appeal to the Minister for Finance, the TSC and all teachers’ unions to work very closely to see that teachers are well remunerated for the good work they are doing for this country. Thank you."
