    "content": " Okay, I have heard you. In this situation, I will give direction. I am not satisfied when one committee says that information is not in its domain. That information can be obtained from other departments of the Government or from another committee. So, I am directing that the Committee on Land and Natural Resources liaises with the Committee on Education to ascertain the number of public schools in Kenya, in the first instance, so that however we do it, we have a list. We know how many public schools are in Kenya so that the first tranche of that question is answered. Based on that, I expect that you will tell us how many of those schools in the whole country have title deeds. That is important so that this question is answered once and for all. I direct that we suspend further debate on this statement; we send it back to you. Liaise with the Committee on Education; ascertain how many public schools are there in this country. Out of that information, you will tell us how many have title deeds. Then, again on that, the question did not talk so much about how many applications have been made for title deeds; it is how many schools have title deeds. So, these 5,319 schools will be part of the question but it does not answer the question because I do not believe for a minute that in the whole country, only 345 schools have title deeds. I do not think so, but you said 345 schools are out of the 5,319 schools. So, there is something that does not quite tally. That is my direction; so that in two weeks, you can give us a full answer on this situation. You asked for a direction and I have given it."
