• 11 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the first tranche that I am talking about was in the financial year 2012/2013. It was budgeted for by this House in the year 2012. I would like to plead with the hon. Member that the delay was not caused by the Ministry of Education but rather by the delay in receiving the same for the amounts from the Ministry of Finance.

• 11 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, that concern is very genuine. In fact, the amounts given are commensurate with the enrolment.

So, that one is a genuine concern and very soon, we will have new figures so that there is proper coverage. view

• 27 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The comparative statistics of girl-child education and that of the boy-child at the KCSE in Migori County is as tabulated below per district in the years 2011 and 2012. I do appreciate the fact that this maybe a little lengthy, but I think it is important for this House to note.

• 27 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is a very valid request. After my visit, we will see how we can recommend for the starting up of more girls’ schools to cater for the girls. view
• 27 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, we have a law that has banned female genital mutilation. I will liaise with the relevant Ministry which enforces such laws, that is, the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security, so that we make sure that, that practice is stopped. view
