Thank you very much, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I want to support this Bill. It is a good move for Hon. Emmanuel Wangwe to bring it. When the Member for Muhoroni mentioned Prof. Kaimenyi, I think he should have known that Prof. Kaimenyi is one of the best Cabinet Secretaries we have ever had for the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, that is not the case at the moment because many people have not been able to pay their school fees and they cannot access their certificates even after the Deputy President said it many times in public rallies.

If it is ...

Regarding free primary and free secondary education, we need to come up with clear guidelines because free is not really free. A lot of things are being done which are not possible.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I support this Bill by hon. Millie Odhiambo. It is high time that we do not wait for this Health Bill which I was even told about when I wanted to bring a Motion. So, if the Committee feels that they are going to bring the Health Bill, let them bring it. We will discuss it when it comes. As this Bill is in the House today, it should be debated and not be withdrawn by hon. Millie Odhiambo. On the merits of the Bill, hon. Millie has given a lot ...
