Care is being exercised to ensure that we not only attain quality standards in our education system, but we are also able to relate to the rest of the world. A Member has given a comparison of a Masters Degree obtained here in the field of Medicine. When taken to the United States of America, this person is rated as a nurse. Why is it so?

Clause 7 of this Bill speaks to the functions of the Authority. There are 13 key functions that I invite the Members to familiarize themselves with.

However, it appears as if an arbitrary decision was made that imposed hefty parking fees, and this is what was being ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we have experienced this and we are looking at it from the political angle. Could it have happened because the county is in control of members of the opposite side? We want to examine this critically and see whether there is an attempt to sabotage this important sector. If so, we wonder why one would have the courage to inconvenience Nairobians, people who are running the national economy and undermine business people who are operating in this city.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, equally, I support the amendment proposed by the Member for Mbita. It is anchoring this in the Constitution which is better than making provisions which are vague. I support the amendment.
