    "content": "I believe that this Bill is going to bring a lot of changes and we are going to ensure that compounds where kids play are also taken care of very well. In some places, the space available is very small. A child who just sits in class without playing does not change. Children know that when they go out there, there are going to be playing facilities. The one-acre piece of land that is proposed as the minimum for setting up an ECD centre should be adequate, apart from the urban areas where getting land is not easy. I believe that, as this Bill is debated and passed, the county governments will also realise that they need to pay teaching staff properly. In some counties, ECD teachers are paid as little as Kshs5,000. There is no standard remuneration of ECD teachers. I believe it is covered in the Bill and, therefore, there will be standard remuneration and operational rules. I believe that the Bill will bring in the TSC. If it is not brought in, then we will have different operations in different counties. Standardisation is very important so that we can have proper learning facilities for ECD children."
