    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Mwaruma has raised a very important matter which nobody seems to focus on. We have focused on the Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE), which is the preserve of county governments. We have focused on basic education and assumed that it is about primary and secondary education for children with full abilities. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like it to go on record, so that the Committee which you will dedicate this matter to, also responds on the infrastructure allocation to special needs schools in Taita-Taveta. Since this matter affects all the 47 counties, I beg that the relevant Committee does a report for the entire Republic; it will surprise you. I looked at the infrastructure allocation to basic education in this Republic. It will surprise you that the Ministry of Education in the last financial year, had Kshs1.8 billion allocated to basic education. Out of this money, Kshs200 million went to primary schools, Kshs1.6 billion to secondary schools, while the amount that went to special needs school is neglible. It cannot be determined. Therefore, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg that in addition to staffing, we should look at infrastructure allocation, not just for Taita-Taveta, but for all the 47 counties, including Homa Bay."
