"content": " Let me start by thanking all Members for their contributions. I am happy that all Members have basically supported the idea but there are a number of suggestions that we need to take into consideration so that we can improve this. Major benefits such as curbing examination cheating, decline in external aggression and protection of existing infrastructure have been mentioned. Some Hon. Members are saying that infrastructure in our schools is not good but it is actually the little we have that needs to be protected so that it is not destroyed. Other benefits of installing CCTV cameras in our schools include decline in drug abuse, exoneration of innocent victims because sometimes when there is fire people assume it is arson yet it could be electrical fault. Basically, this has many benefits. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Members have also made some observations. Some have said that CCTV cameras are cheap to install. They are proposing that if possible we channel the money through the National Government-CDF so that it can reach our schools easily. Over and above that, Members have talked about other problems that we need to address. Because of time factor, I take the sentiments of Members positively. We will also try to canvas with the Departmental Committee on Education and Research on the case of the CCTV cameras. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
