"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that the Sololo District Education Officer (DEO) does not have a motor vehicle, while two Land Rover vehicles which were allocated to the Moyale District Education Office in the year 2003 are grounded and require major repairs. (b) I am also ware that some districts do not have Deputy DEOs. The Sololo DEO will be considered for a vehicle alongside other 100 DEOs who have no vehicles when the Ministry gets budgetary allocation for from Treasury in the next financial year. As a temporary measure, the DEO, Moyale, has been directed to bring mechanical reports from the Ministry of Public Works regarding the two grounded vehicles, so that they can be repaired. After the repairs, one vehicle will be taken to Sololo District as one remains in Moyale. (c) In line with the new Constitution, the Ministry is currently finalising the posting of the new County Directors of Education. Further to this, with availability of funds, the Ministry will hire more staff and post them to the districts, including Sololo and Moyale."

"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I feel a lot of pain listening to that answer. For the last four years, this Ministry has been in consultation with me on how to provide vehicles to Moyale and Sololo Districts. Today we are being told that the two districts will be provided with vehicles in the next financial year. Only in October, when His Excellency the President went to preside over the ground-breaking ceremony of the Moyale-Turbi Road, we appealed to him, so that we can be provided with vehicles for the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security because of the difficult situation in the county. The Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security moved with speed and provided vehicles to many districts, including Sololo and Moyale. This Ministry, to-date, is dragging its feet. It is like they are disobeying the executive order given by His Excellency the President. What I need from the Ministry is to be certain that vehicles are going to be provided urgently, so that children in Moyale and Sololo Districts can get decent education like children in the rest of the country. I am not ready to receive answers such as “next financial year” only for the same to be postponed when we reach the next financial year, bearing in mind the fact that His Excellency the President had personally directed this Ministry to avail the vehicles. What is the Assistant Minister going to do for these two specific districts in the meantime; before financial year 2012/2013, when he is going to provide vehicles to all other districts? Since His Excellency has given a directive, what is he going to do to make sure that the two districts get vehicles?"

That is a directive we have given, so that we provide money, latest in January, 2012, to have those vehicles repaired, so that they can be in use. In the meantime, as I have indicated, Sololo District will be budgeted for in regard to acquisition of a new vehicle for it."
