"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I agree with my colleagues that the issue of the laptop project should be made an issue for the Committee of the Whole. This is because if you look at some of these issues, they are cross cutting. I thank Sen. Wetangula for seeking this Statement. This issue must be relooked at because, apparently, if you do not take care, the education sector is going to the dogs. Madam Temporary Speaker, many people are saying that Kshs70 billion was spent on this digital learning process. However, when you go to some schools, you wonder whether it is the laptops which were needed, the infrastructure or classrooms. We appreciate that the Government has tried to connect electricity across most of the primary schools in this Republic. However, when you go to some of the schools where this laptop project is being implemented, you wonder whether they the need laptops or infrastructure. That is why, Madam Temporary Speaker, this issue should be brought before a Committee of the whole House so that we can interrogate it fully. This is an audit query The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
