    "content": "Thank you very much Madam Temporary Speaker. I beg to move:- THAT, the Senate adopts the Report of the Standing Committee on Education, Information and Technology on retreats with County Executive Members in charge of Education and Information Technology (ICT), held at the Great Rift Valley Lodge, Naivasha on 11th to 14th September, 2013; Serena Hotel Mombasa, on 17th to 20th October, 2013 and at the Continental Resort, Mombasa, on 19th to 22nd December, 2013 laid on the Table of the Senate on Thursday 3rd April, 2014. Madam Temporary Speaker, from the outset, let me say that the Motion that is infront of the House is to adopt a Report that I tabled here and the Report was the result of three meetings. The first one is that the Committee met with all county executives from the 47 counties responsible for education and ICT. These sessions were done when the committees had not been separated. The second session was with the chairmen of the committees of education and ICT from the 47 counties. Having met the CECs responsible for education and ICT, and having met the chairmen of the committees of the county legislatures responsible for ICT and education, the third meeting was a combination of the two. We then invited the CECs for education and ICT, the chairmen for education and ICT from the 47 counties and then met with the whole team in Mombasa. The reason why we did so was because we wanted to centralize and discuss the matter of ICT and education as affecting the entire country, county by county. We have gone around this country, we have visited about 20 counties and we are still going on. We have compared the performance of these counties in the areas that are charged with the Committee, we have gone and urged action on the various aspects that we felt were important for the Committee and we have seen the difference between when we started these sessions and the present day. 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."
