    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Members should also understand that the schools’ management had sympathetically allowed the students to complete their studies on the understanding that they would pay the arrears after completing their studies. It is, therefore, my expectation that the parents, students and guardians who are capable of paying school fees arrears should immediately visit the schools and negotiate with the management on payment of the arrears on a case by case basis. At the same time, the District Education Officers and Provincial Directors of Education will undertake the identification of needy students whose certificates have been withheld for the release. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, lastly, the Ministry is currently shouldering a large portion of the burden of fees to parents and students through the free day secondary education programmes and other Government devolved funds. It is thus my expectation that the parents, students and guardians also fulfill their obligation for paying school fees to help in the management of the schools. Thank you."
