I just want to comment that the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) in this Budget did not get the allocation for the employment of teachers. I want to be very categorical here in the sense that in the Budget Estimates, the targets were given to recruit 20,000 teachers but the allocation was not indicated in the Budget. I would want to request this House, through the BAC chair, to really ensure that the targets that the ministry had set in the Vote Book are achieved by allocating the required Kshs10 billion for the recruitment of teachers in the 2018/2019 Budget."}
