    "content": "Yes, hon. Deputy Speaker. I have keenly listened to the response from the Committee Chairperson. It has come out clearly that in the 21st Century, the Government has not upgraded any of the schools in ASALs to low-cost boarding schools. The list that has been provided has names of schools which existed in the 20th Century. So, we want the Government to tell us what it has done to bring pastoral communities to the level of the rest of Kenyans in the 21st Century. Secondly, the Government has accepted that it has a budgetary deficit which has been in existence for quite some time. What action is the Government taking to address the gap? We know that the current Government is very generous, even the schools which held certificates of various students who could not clear their fees have now had the fees waived. Now, there is a case of some people who have never accessed education. These ones have partially accessed it; the only problem now is the labour market. But there are those who are still languishing with their livestock outside and the Government has not made any effort to address this."
