    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to give an example. In 2010/2011 the recovery was Kshs3.8 billion, and in 2011/2012 we recovered Kshs4.1 billion. This is still short of what we should recover because we could recover up to Kshs7 billion or Kshs8 billion. One of our problems is that most of our graduates are not yet employed, and until someone is employed, there is no way of recovering money because there is nothing to recover from. Secondly, the tracking system, that is being able to find all the students who have graduated and are in employment, has not been that easy; progress is being made as we partner with employers and other organizations. So, the recovery process is improving but we are not recovering even a half of what we should recover. This is partly because of unemployment and also because our system is still not good enough to find all students, including those in self-employment. I believe that in the next one or two years, we are going to do better and the money will go back to the pool."
