It happened that they were just coming from my doorstep, and I had not realised that they were from my Constituency. It is good that they have come to Benchmark here. Visiting here means they are going to work very hard and in the near future, most of them are going to join the august House. I encourage them to try and learn a lot by moving around Parliament before they go back home, so that they are encouraged to work hard and go places in the near future. I wish you well and welcome you to this august House. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker."

"content": "of life to all its citizens by 2030; appreciating that education is a crucial compound of accelerating the realisation of Vision 2030, Articles 43(1) and 53(1b) of the Constitution entitles every child to the right to free and compulsory basic education; noting that the Government provides capitation per child towards free primary education and subsidised secondary and tertiary education, which is supplemented by funds from household contributions, grants, donations, levies, charities, scholarships, and bursaries, including those from the Presidency, Ministry of Education, the National Government Constituency Development Fund(NG-CDF), the National Government Affirmative Action Fund(NGAAF), and county governments; cognisant that despite the Constitution's provision on free basic education and the framework for financing education, parents and guardians still bear significant costs for boarding, meals, supplementary learning materials, and infrastructural development, necessitating bursary support for needy students; concerned that the multiplicity of channels and standards involved in education financing contributes to multiple allocations of bursaries and scholarships to single beneficiaries, disadvantaging deserving students; further concerned that, the process of allocation and distribution of bursary funds and the identification of beneficiaries for bursaries and scholarships lacks transparency and clear eligibility criteria, and the application and processing procedures do not provide for established appeal mechanisms for recourse by students denied bursary or scholarship awards; acknowledging that, the absence of a comprehensive database of students in basic and higher education hampers the effective and equitable disbursement and utilisation of bursaries and scholarships, and the current funding model, including insufficient government capitation, exacerbates this issue; considering that, the education financing model as currently designed, particularly the disbursement of bursaries and scholarships, is fragmented, uncoordinated and inefficient, leading to duplication, inconsistencies, lack of accountability, and overlapping mandates among multiple government and private entities, including between the national and county governments, contrary to the Fourth Schedule to the Constitution; deeply concerned that lack of a unified and comprehensive framework on allocation, issuance, administration, coordination, synchronization, management and oversight of education funding, particularly bursaries and scholarships in sync with government capitation not only causes duplication, inconsistencies and unaccountability but also hampers the realisation of free and compulsory basic education in Kenya; appreciating that, education funding, including capitation, bursaries and scholarships play a vital role in supplementing funding for enhancing access to free education, particularly for children from disadvantaged backgrounds, hence contributing to the realisation of universal basic education; now therefore, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 259C, this House– 1. Resolves to establish an ad hoc Select Committee to review the current education funding administration processes in the country and recommend a unified, comprehensive and sustainable framework for the purpose of facilitating free and compulsory education at the primary, secondary and tertiary levels; 2. Approves the following Terms of Reference to guide the ad hoc Select Committee in undertaking the mandate– (a) conduct a situational analysis of all existing education funds at national and county levels; (b) map and analyse all existing education-related funds including government capitation, bursaries, scholarships and grants; The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
