    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, allow me to persuade my very good friend that there is a bit of misunderstanding here. The word, “standard” used in Article 237 for the TSC relates to standards of training of teachers and their education. The word, “standards” used in Schedule Four with regard to policy on education relates to policy on education. You cannot mix the two. Both of them are stand-alone constitutional provisions. I would like to persuade my good friend that this amendment would, in fact, bring tremendous amount of confusion which we are already seeing on the ground where you find the directors appointed by the TSC thinking that it is for them to set standards for education. That is not the case. Their work is under Article 237 – standards on teacher training, teacher education. The work of the County Director of Education is standards of policy of education. There is a tremendous amount of difference. I want to persuade my friend, kindly, I am your lawyer and when I give you advice, you normally accept. Please, consider and drop the amendment."
