    "content": "Government to educate those children. For example, orphans have no other sources of fees. There is nowhere else that they can get support. They are so needy to the extent that they require full funding. I support this Motion and urge that we should look at children with disabilities. They should be encompassed in this so that we can also make it mandatory for the Government to support them. We may have the information but the CDF is not enough to cater for those children. Therefore, this House needs to move and ensure that the needy children of this country get access to education. We should also be ready to embrace certain actions that will ensure that children get education. The children are not necessarily poor. When we establish a public data bank of bright and poor students, they should be children from poor family backgrounds and, therefore, they are needy. If we talk of needy students, there are a number of variations and certain parameters that we use to gauge how needy a child is. Therefore, when we talk about poor, I do not know how relative it is. We should look at all the needy cases and not only just the poor students. When you look at the CDF right now and the guidelines that have been provided by the Ministry, they are talking about funding of needy and bright students in boarding schools. When you look at the day schools, we have also very bright and needy children."
