    "content": "In a nutshell, I am saying that we have issues with the classification of hardship areas. The Ministry did a good thing in 2009. It re-classified the hardship areas. This is what I want the Committee to look into. When this matter was raised, we were told that the Kenya National Union of Teachers (KNUT) disputed the re-classification for obvious reasons, which I understand. There are some areas which were removed from hardship areas and others were added. The Kenya National Union of Teachers did not have a problem with those areas which were added but with the areas which were removed. Some of their members were benefitting, but they lost the hardship allowance. As the Government sorts out the areas that were removed, it should start paying hardship allowances to the areas that were added. The Government, in its own wisdom, classified those hardship areas."
