"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, I would like to inform the hon. Member that the Ministry has never avoided answering this Question. There was a time when we were supposed to answer it, but the hon. Member was away. The second time we did not address the Question because there was some other business of the House. Parliament then went on recess and we are now dealing with it today. The Minister for Education appreciates the support given to him by Members of Parliament. I remember the PS in the Ministry of Education wrote to the Chair of the Committee on Education, Research and Technology and the Budget Committee requesting for support, so that we could get the money we had requested for from the Treasury for hiring teachers and converting our contract teachers into permanent and pensionable ones. If we get that money, through the Appropriations and Finance Bills, they will be employed the same day. That is an assurance that I want to make. We stand guided by the two Bills once they are passed by Parliament."
