    "content": "The other area we need to support is the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) being charged with the responsibility of recruiting all the teachers at the pre-school level, polytechnic level or even the regular school level. We know the Constitution gives the mandate to recruit teachers and register them to the TSC. For purposes of harmonisation, standardisation and quality assurance, it is important that the teachers we sent to these institutions are, to some extent, quality assured by the same organization, so that we do not have children who come from some parts of this country getting lower grade teachers while others are get high grade ones. This idea of having TSC doing all the recruitment is important, but then there will be the question of who will pay the salaries. I see that becoming a contentious issue because we are aware that the Constitution gives the mandate for pre-primary schools and polytechnics to the county governments. I do not know whether the TSC can hire and the payment be done by the county government. That should come out clearly; who will take care of the payment of salaries between the county government or the national Government."
