Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think it is high time the Ministry of Education looks into the plight of members of the non-teaching staff who retire because he says that after that legal notice he has cited, it is now the responsibility of the school management committees and board of governors to pay service gratuity to its retirees. Both Losenkei and ole Meidimi are now in their fifth year since they retired. My question to the Assistant Minister is: Does the Ministry have a budget line on which to charge this payment? How come it takes five years---

Mr. Speaker, Sir, in his answer, the Assistant Minister says: - if you look at the third paragraph – “The following documents are required by the Ministry to be submitted by the school management for the processing of his terminal benefit”. That is what is required by the Ministry to be submitted by the school management for the Ministry to pay what it is supposed to pay up to 1993.

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we understand the predicament the Minister is in with regard to employment of community health workers.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the response by the Rt. Hon. Prime Minister confirms one thing; that in Kenya, if you come from a small community, your rights and freedoms are never guaranteed. A Parliamentary Committee investigated this matter. They went to the ground and confirmed that 4,115 heads of cattle were taken from the Samburus. This ruthless Government used military choppers to round up animals from water points, cross them to Isiolo and distributed them to the communities there because they belong to the PNU Party. Are you confirming that this Government of yours discriminates against the small communities?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, leaders from Samburu County sent two goodwill delegations to His Excellency the President and one of their grievances was compensation for the livestock. The President had actually directed the current Head of Public Service to act, because that is the most ruthless public officer who is denying us cattle. Why has the Government not acted on the goodwill of His Excellency the President?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister says in his answer that not all districts require these departmental heads, because they can either be idle or under- employed. But what will he say in regard to Civil Registrars? Registration of births and deaths is required, yet in some districts we do not have Civil Registrars.
