Further, it will be important to inform the public of the full scope of activities of the foundation in Kenya and whether the privileges granted are within the established diplomatic norms. While the foundation contributes to national development, it is imperative that its operations remain within the legal and regulatory framework set by the Government. Hon. Speaker, it is against this background that I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence, Intelligence, and Foreign Relations on the following: 1. The justification for the grant of special status to the Gates Foundation, including the diplomatic privileges and immunities for these expatriates. 2. A comprehensive report on the scope of activities the foundation is undertaking in the country. 3. Clarification of whether the activities of the foundation in the country are under state oversight and regulation. Thank you."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(c), I wish to request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Committee on Education regarding the implementation of the Career Progression Guidelines for teachers. In 2017, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) adopted the Career Progression Guidelines, effectively replacing the previous Schemes of Service. The new framework aimed to streamline promotions based on standardised criteria for all teachers, including academic qualifications. However, many teachers have raised concerns about the fairness and transparency of this scheme. Specifically, it is claimed that the Commission does not adequately recognise efforts made by teachers to further their education, leading to career stagnation and demotivation. Further, a report revealed that some teachers have not been promoted in the last 24 years, which has led to further frustration. It is against this background that I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Education on the following: 1. A report on the implementation of the Career Progression Guidelines, specifically how academic qualifications have been considered in the promotion of teachers. 2. A report on the number of teachers promoted since 2017, including as headteachers, and reasons for the lack of promotion of some teachers over the past 24 years. 3. The measures that the TSC has put in place to remedy the career stagnation problem among teachers, noting the current shortage of Junior Secondary School (JSS) teachers. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
