    "content": "The amount of money allocated by this House to TSC for hiring of teachers to teach at TVET institutions is not included. I want to go on record. That is why the Budget and Appropriations Committee got representation. In fact, the information from the Ministry of Education is that the teachers who would teach at TVET institutions will work under Public Service Commission (PSC) and not under TSC anymore. That is the information out there. If they cannot recruit from the resources given to them, then this House is under obligation to recruit teachers for the new TVET institutions where Members of Parliament in this House have allocated over Kshs10 million from their NG-CDF. So, why do we build colleges which have been equipped and there are no teachers? Secondly, students do not go to these TVETs because they do not receive capitation; they cannot access help. The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology is under obligation, after we pass this Budget, to make sure that the same way we give capitation to students in other colleges, is the way we do it to the students we send to TVETs so that their fees are lower. As of now, it is even more expensive to send your child to a TVET than to the University of Nairobi (UoN)."
