    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank the Chairperson of the Committee on Education for bringing this Statement, like he did last week. I have had time to look through the response and I have a few clarifications to seek. One, on the admissions that were done this year, can he confirm – because it is clear in the guidelines that three pupils were to be picked from each sub-county from both private and public schools – that, that happened; that the three that were picked from the sub-counties were from either gender and were from both private and public schools? Secondly, on the missed opportunities in school, especially on the number – the 192,000 that could not get admission to secondary schools – are also joined together with the ones that could not access the same due to the high fees that have resulted from the non-implementation of the Dr. Kilemi Mwiria Task Force Report. I want the Chairperson to clarify how many of these spaces have been taken by children, especially the ones from the affirmative action areas in the rural areas and how those positions were filled in the said national schools because the selection panel does not sit again. How are those positions filled? 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."
