    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Education regarding the total paralysis in learning activities in Mashuru Sub County in Kajiado County, resulting from the interdiction of 58 teachers for alleged opposition to the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC). In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Explain the circumstances under which the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) interdicted 58 of the 134 teachers in Mashuru Sub County, with a serious ripple effect to neighbouring regions within Kajiado County and provide a list of the interdicted teachers. (2) Show proof that the interdicted teachers were opposed to the introduction of the CBC as alleged. (3) Clarify whether the teachers were given a hearing prior to the interdiction, considering that many of the teachers, some of whom were on sick leave or maternity leave, received their interdiction letters before the period provided to respond to ―show cause letters‖ had lapsed. (4) State what urgent measures the national and county governments are taking to deal with the matter and also ensure that normal learning activities are restored at the sub- county, considering that 22 of the victims are headteachers and all the schools have candidates who need to be prepared for the 2019 Kenya Certificate of Primary Education (KCPE). 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."
