"content": "Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker. I would also like to thank Sen. Musila for bringing this Motion. I am sure in his earlier life as a Provincial Commissioner; he must have met so many miserable cases of parents pleading with him to intervene in one school or the other with their children not being given certificates after they have completed their schooling. What surprises me is that the law is very clear and I am sure all of you in this House must have seen the law. The KNEC legal regime is the Act establishing it where the functions of the Council are, among other things, to award certificates and diplomas to candidates in such examinations, such certificates or diplomas shall not be withheld from the candidate by any person or institution. How then does a head of an institution go ahead to withhold a certificate when the body that examines has the law establishing it stating very clearly that the end result of sitting an examination is to get a certificate and whatever the condition, those certificates must be given to the students? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
