Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also rise in support of the Petition by the Member of Parliament for Juja. When we are designing roads, the aspect of safety must be considered by the engineers. In my constituency, along the road between Kericho and Kisumu we have accidents day in, day out, at a place called Kaitui. Safety of our people is so paramount such that we are asking the designers, architects and all those involved in road construction to put the safety of our people in the forefront in the implementation of these projects. I support.

terms of supplying clean water to the people of Kandara. We, in Parliament, should emulate the late George Mwicigi and do the same things.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise in support. Let me say that the President got it right when he nominated these people for appointment as CSs and PSs. He picked persons with competence and professional qualifications. He has looked at persons who believe in the ideals of public service. The two PSs in the Ministry of Agriculture, Dr. Tuimur and Mr. Mwangi have rich and fulfilling careers in livestock and water.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I join my colleagues in supporting this Bill. I am sure this Bill will reform the education sector in areas that really matter.

I would like to ask the Committee to clearly define the responsibilities of the county governments in matters of education.

What I like most about this Bill is the fact that it provides an avenue through which pupils will transit from primary school to secondary school. After that they will access training in polytechnics and other tertiary institutions.

We should ensure that those who reach MPs, MCAs and governors do not get more than their share in terms of disbursements.
