Mr. Speaker, Sir, while I agree with the Assistant Minister, the purpose of giving bursaries and other assistance to our secondary school students is to enable them access education which this Government and country acknowledges. However, it is difficult to understand why the Ministry would give directives that would deny clever children in our secondary schools access to education just because they were not admitted into boarding schools. Education for all is not meant for boarders only. It is meant for children in our secondary schools, universally. Could the Assistant Minister then consider issuing another circular which does not discriminate ...

asked the Minister for Roads:â (a) to clarify whether the design for the Karwinu-Maragua River- Gacharage Road has been completed; and, (b) when the Ministry will provide funds to construct the road to bitumen status.

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While I appreciate the answer, the design for this road began in 1978, and 32 years down the line, the Ministry has not been able to raise funds to complete the undertaking. The Ministry commenced construction of a bridge on Maragua River and it has stalled for the last two years. Could the Assistant Minister give an undertaking to complete the stalled bridge and maintain the road between the two rivers, Kayahwe and Maragua, to motorable standards because the bushes are almost covering the road which is Class C. It has been abandoned.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am grateful for the answer but I would have wished the Assistant Minister to give us a timeframe when this bridge will be completed. Is he talking about this financial year or is it within the next financial year?
