    "content": "Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker, I would like to thank very much hon. Kinoti for bringing this very important Motion. From consensus, I would like to then move an amendment to give this Motion even more teeth than it currently has. I beg to move that the Motion be amended by inserting the word “institution” after the word “public” appearing in the third last line. And by, inserting the words, “which shall take into consideration, when disbursing the bursaries” immediately after the words “fund committees” appearing in the second line. The gist of this amendment is that the motion as it is currently is, is basically saying that the data will be made available to the County Director of Education, the public and the other institutions without necessarily saying strictly that they should use that data bank when they are disbursing any bursaries. This is very important because it will curb any random distribution of bursaries to students, particularly who may not be the neediest in our communities. When we spend resources to create the data bank, we must also have mechanisms for ensuring that the data bank is the primary source of distribution of any bursaries by public institutions in our constituencies and counties. This amendment will ensure that anybody, or any public institution, whether it is a bursary fund started by the governor or any other public institution, uses the data bank as the primary tool for assigning or giving out bursaries. The amended Motion will, therefore, read--- I will start from the beginning."
