"content": "universities to ensure that they have clearly stated the courses that they are meant to teach. Specifically, for engineering courses, the Commission should be able to vet and ensure that the question of manpower and equipment, especially teaching expertise that was a critical issue, is addressed. For engineering courses, they say that these particular courses have to be well equipped. Therefore, the issues of personnel and equipment have to be tackled. They will ensure that in each of these universities, if they have not been given accreditation, then they will not proceed. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Commission for University Education has, as well, given us a report. With your permission, I request to table it. This is a report to the Senate Standing Committee on Accreditation of Engineering Programmes. It has more details about the specific process for engagement and the specific courses where the make-up courses need to be done. We acknowledged that this was a serious problem. It should not have occurred and because of that technical aspect, the Commission for University Education and the Engineering Board of Kenya were able to discuss and find an amicable way-forward for the 2,000 students who have been affected by this problem. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
