    "content": "First, this Bill is likely to be unconstitutional, because the only body that is mandated to employ, register and pay teachers is the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). My county employed Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) teachers, but they call them ‘caregivers.’ Therefore, it is likely that we might have to change this and say that these are not teachers but caregivers, so that it does not run in contravention with Article 237 of the Constitution that forms the TSC. Secondly, Clause36(1)(a)of the County Early Childhood Education Bill 2018 states that- “A person is qualified for employment as an early childhood education teacher if such person — (a) holds at least a diploma in early childhood development and education from an institution recognized in Kenya;” The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
