    "content": "time a child is sent home to go and bring money to do a test or get books in the school. Even the parents do not feel that there is free education. I advise both sides of this House, Jubilee and the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD), that we should come together to help the Government. They are pouring money and people who are supposed to use this money misuse it by pretending that nobody will check. When we put bursars in these schools, they will be accountable and the Government will have a chance of checking how money has been spent and even see what it has been used for in the school. The bursar must be a Government employee. They should be trained people who will look after this money. This is a democratic House. Whether you are from the Opposition or the Government side, you should help the Executive. Let us help the Executive, which is willing to devolve a good education system in this country. We can only have a good system of education in this country by equipping our primary schools and by facilitating them, then we shall have the best education which will attract many other countries to come and copy from us. We should not only think about the parents crying to teachers every year. They even assume that the Government has not brought in money. Government gives our primary schools money every year. I do not want to talk much. Because of my age, I advise all Members of Parliament to support this Motion and help the Government to run the primary schools better. With these few remarks, I support the Motion. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."
