    "content": "Thank you very, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also thank the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology for giving me this chance. Mine is to sincerely thank the Committee and also thank God because in the year 2013, I moved this as a Motion in this House seeking to establish a data bank for needy students. The reason is that before I came here, I was a volunteer teacher in my village. Over nine years, I was empowering children. Very many children came from very poor families. It was very painful to me as a teacher to see them not going to high school because of the poverty levels in their families. Now, this is a milestone in our country where we will have a data bank of the needy children who do not go to high school. In addition, Clause 8 gives a suggestion that the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Education, in partnership with the CS for the National Treasury, should develop a fund to see how the children who do not go to high school or complete high school are catered for. Sincerely, I thank this House for taking into consideration the needy children of this country. Thank you and God bless you."
