    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition brought by Hon. Bett, Member of Parliament for Bomet East. Teachers play a very pivotal role in terms of education. I went to school in Bomet and I understand the squalid conditions institutions are in. Therefore, teachers in those areas are really suffering. Schools have no water. You have to walk for a long distance because there is no accommodation in the institutions. Those teachers are really suffering and I support the idea that the Departmental Committee on Education, Research and Technology helps to have that constituency approved to get the hardship allowance. Two wards in my constituency, Chilchila and Kunyak, allow teachers to draw hardship allowance and yet Kipkelion and Kamasian wards are equally in dire need of the same. I really recommend that the Committee should look into this because there is a lot of disparity even when you turn to teacher distribution. People want to rush to where there is hardship allowance and forget those regions without hardship allowance in one constituency. I support."
