• 30 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: I think it is good for Members to know that it is for their own health and safety. The classrooms that we need in this country are many. If the Ministry of Education is not given enough funds, if it is not allowed to build enough schools, even pre- fabricated classrooms, the spread of COVID-19 is going to be unprecedented in our schools. We also have to ensure that we have sanitizers and enough water. We also have teachers and non-teaching staff who need to be taken through the protocols of how to maintain good health and sanitation in schools. ... view
• 30 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: I think it is important to allow Members to speak to this because it also enlightens the population and Members that the Government has actually invested in this matter. Though they have put in a lot of investment, the money is not enough. Looking at the student population, you will realise that even the money meant for NG-CDF needs to be released so fast so that it assists the Government to put up some of these structures. I support. view

• 25 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: the policy on recruitment of teachers is the constitutional mandate of the Teachers Service Commission (TSC). Recruitment of BOM teachers is independently done by the respective boards without the involvement of the Ministry. However, as explained below, the Ministry has already facilitated public primary and secondary schools and public teacher training colleges to enable them to continue paying wages to their support staff engaged by BOMs for the period ending 30th June 2020. The next question was whether the Ministry could consider utilising part of these funds to pay the schools’ or institutes’ support staff, who have also not been ... view
• 23 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I also congratulate Hon. Duale for the work he did all that time, almost seven years. When he started, I was a Vice Chair. Today I am a Chair of a committee. I also want to congratulate Hon. Amos Kimunya who has been my Vice Chair in the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. I know him very well.

• 23 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Chairman. This amendment is actually very good. I want to congratulate the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. Taxing pensioners is actually doing double taxation on them because they had already paid taxes during their service time. Two, this is the time they are very vulnerable. They are aged and need money to buy drugs. On top of that, they have many dependents. On the social responsibility issue, it is something that will enhance the social responsibility of institutions and organisations. view
