    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I will rephrase my response for the sake of my good colleague. Who are the implementing agents? The champion of the pilot project is the Jubilee Government. So, the champion is the President and the leader of the Jubilee Coalition. That is why we have the laptop project under his leadership. As for implementation, I have given the Member a copy of the Statement that I am going to table, which shows the various stages of the project. Those who are involved include the Cabinet, the Principal Secretaries and the technical team. As for the champion, to be more specific, it is none other than the President of the Republic of Kenya. On the issue of the Kenyan ICT guy, as raised by hon. Shakeel, that one has to be done within the procurement process. The procurement law has been passed by this Parliament. Therefore, due process will be followed. What is important is for the Kenyan taxpayer to get value for money as the children get the laptops. On the issue of the mobile computer lab project that failed to take off in the last Parliament, this is a new Parliament. Parliament is its custodian. The money that was disbursed by the Government in the last Parliament was not used. I am sure that this House can look into that matter and see whether we can provide more funds for the mobile computer lab project in the next Budget. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
