    "content": "attachment they have to the early learning process, in recognition that it is the foundation of all learning. If we get it right there, we get it right all the way. If we get it wrong, we are sunk. As a Committee, we looked at this Bill extensively. We will bring a whole raft of amendments, first of all to harmonise it with the Basic Education Act, so that the terminologies and phraseologies are all aligned and to also bring some of the provisions that the Senate did not include. I would like to encourage Members who have promised to bring some amendments to do so, so that we can harmonise them. Perhaps, it could be the same amendments that we have already addressed, so that we can get this Bill right from the word go. Members earlier today voted on the revised Sessional Paper, which is the anchor of this. It summarises all those things from alignment with the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4. Nobody will be left behind. It is life-long learning. We want to start it from early childhood all the way to higher learning in a seamless and standardised manner, so that a child in Mandera and one in Nyandarua are subjected to the same standards. This is part of the reason for this Bill. I want to thank the Senate for initiating this Bill. I hope by the time we make amendments, we will not go into a twinge and throwing, but it is something we will do for the betterment of this country. I also want to thank Members for their contributions that they have put in and the stakeholders who appeared before the Committee and brought their views. With those few remarks, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to reply."
