"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the issue of HELB has become controversial of late because we have been asking many questions about it. They renege whenever they see Statements. I heard that it was in the news, but it is wrong. The HELB is creating more problems. We have talked about the issue of students being asked to get clearance from the Credit Reference Bureau (CRB) and other documents before being employed. That happens when they make applications even before they go for interviews. We all understand that the HELB gets very little from students in terms of loan repayment. As many people have stated here, many organisations and businesses have been given exemptions, without forgetting those who plant cash crops. Last time the President gave miraa farmers Kshs1 billion, but students are an important human resource in this country. We know that once they finish studies, many students do not get jobs. That is why many of them are jobless."
