    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chairman of the Committee says that it is a contradiction in terms because although they are required to give out the certificates, they cannot actually force the head teacher to give out because of the money owed. What I think Sen. Musila and others have been asking for a long time is; if the Government can waive debts for farmers running into billions of shillings, why can they not waive outstanding fees of a poor child whose certificate is the only source of future incomes? I think that is the point. The Ministry should not allow double speak on this matter. They should come out clearly and direct all those headteachers to give out those certificates and provide ways of paying schools that money or waiving their debts."
