    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to also add my voice to Sen. Mwaura’s Statement on delayed disbursement of capitation funds for learners with special needs. Capitation funds from the Ministry are given on need basis. In any case, that funding is meant for buying resources for learners. When capitation funds for learners with special needs are delayed for one year, a whole year is wasted. That means that no learning takes place. Capitation funds are meant to buy resources for learners. In this case, we are talking about learners with special needs. It means that those learners spent a whole year without receiving resources. I remember one time Members of the Committee on Information, Communication and Technology and the Committee on Education, visited special schools in Eldoret. We found out that learners with special needs needed some special books. Learning could not take place because of shortage of books. The Committee on Education should look into this and ensure that funding is sent at the right time to ensure that learning takes place."
