Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want to thank the Government, but also note that when you look the amount that is outstanding – Kshs14 billion – it means that we still need, as a House, to come up with a mechanism that will assist in future. We know that we have young students who passed very well. So, if you get a mean grade of “A,” “B,” “B-” or even a C+”, that certificate must be released for you to join the university. Maybe the money advanced to you by the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) will enable you to ...
