    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that question would probably be dealt with more appropriately by the Minister for Education. But I have had occasion to look at the Education Act, which makes it clear that a public school is any school that receives assistance, not just complete funds, but even so long as they are benefitting from the public coffers or from the largesse of the Minister for Finance. That school falls under the category of public schools. In this particular instance, I have even seen from the court records that they get teachers from the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). The City Council of Nairobi has also been giving funds and support. So, it clearly falls under that category. Therefore, those who sponsor schools and wish to benefit from public funds should know that they cannot attract public funds and consider themselves to be private entities. All public funds are subject to public audit and accountability."
