    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue that I wanted to raise with him was raised by my colleague, Member for Yatta, that you directed the Minister for Education. Given the facts that are available, the matter ought to be dealt with by the Minister for Lands, because the Ministry of Education has in fact taken up the issue of Oshwal and has written to the Minister for Lands with specific request. The matter can be directed to the Minister for Lands rather than the Minister for Education; we know what the Minister for Education has asked the Minister for Lands to do; I will table that letter, which is dated 28th of November, 2012. It is addressed to the hon. James Orengo; “Re: Loss of Visa Oshwal Primary School”. It points out the conditions of the lease and suggests to the Minister how to convert it into a public school, which has been wrongfully privatised. So, could you, on the basis of this letter, which I am tabling, direct that the matter be dealt with by the Ministry of Lands, because it is the relevant Ministry under these circumstances? FATE OF STATUTORY INSTRUMENTS BILL Mr. Speaker, Sir, secondly, you recall that last week the Attorney General stood in this House and promised you that today, he would tell us the fate of the Statutory Instruments Bill, which was passed in this House and the reasons for the failure by his office to refer the same to the President for assent within the time limit. This afternoon, when I raised the issue, you did indicate that we would wait for him to appear in the House, so that he could give his position before you gave directions. Mr. Speaker, Sir, now that he is not here and the statement was expected from him this afternoon, would I be in order to ask you to ask the Leader of Government Business to request the Attorney General to be here tomorrow and act on the undertaking that he gave you last week. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am tabling the letter by the Ministry of Education to the Minister for Lands with regard to the first issue."
