    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will shortly be bringing two things to this House; one is the Universities Bill 2010. Hopefully, with that Bill, we will be able to harmonize all statutes that establish the various universities and standardize the management of both private and public universities. This will even introduce the flexibility, so that a Kenyan can go to one university and transfer their grades to another university if they find an issue, which is not possible at the moment. I agree with the hon. Member that we need a rethink of our higher education policy. I want to assure this House that, that discussion is already going on and, in a matter of months before the end of this year, both the Universities Bill 2010 and the Bill which deals with technical education, will be in this House for it to consider and hopefully approve them, so that we can have a firm base and standardized education, and ensure that education is not about acquisition of papers, but is about acquisition of skills, knowledge and technology."
