The hon. Member has raised the point that the response was shallow. The CEO of the KNEC will be appearing before the Committee again on Thursday to respond to several questions that have come up regarding examinations and the age of examinable pupils, among other issues. Therefore, I request that the hon. Member attends the Committee meeting on Thursday, at 11.00 p.m., so that he can ask further questions since he is not satisfied with the answer. Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker.

Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker. Bearing in mind that the said officers are very important, I will ask the hon. Member to give me one week, because I do not think we really need to summon the Cabinet Secretary on that; he can just give us a direct answer on when the officers will be posted. I think in one week, we will be ready with an answer.

The answer is ready and we were ready from last week. I made a follow up today and I was informed that it might be there tomorrow morning. So, I am sure that once it is put on the Order Paper, the hon. Member will be notified.

stations to offer services in other stations. All head teachers who are professionally contracted by KNEC as examiners, monitoring officers and trainers are all entitled to payment. It is against the Government policy for officers to receive extra allowances while they are at their workstations. An assessment is part of the normal work routine at their workstation. Therefore, they are required to supervise and mark their students’ projects as normal teaching as per their syllabus. He also sought to know what KNEC is planning in order to provide decent accommodation for the examiners instead of school dormitories. Hon. Speaker, KNEC ...
