"content": "So, the number of students has made it not possible for many students to get loans. There is also lack of aggressiveness from the students to check their accounts. HELB also gives a personal identification number (PIN) which they can use to check online whether they have received the funding or not. On the age of 18 years, the Board is addressing this issue. That is because the identity card (ID) was used as a PIN for registration. The Board is working to see whether the students who have not attained the age of 18 years can have other ways to register. Charges of the interests on the loans are done by the time the students clear the universities. On attachment of KCSE certificate, I would like to tell this House that no one should withhold a student’s certificate because of failure to pay school fees. Already, a circular has been issued to the principals of schools. The rest I have answered. About the poor student not benefiting, it depends on how they fill in the form online. If you do not show that you are needy enough, then you will not get the loan. Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker."
