Mr. Speaker, Sir, I asked this Question because the police activities within the compound of the school interfere with the learning and the psychological well-being of the pupils there. That school has been ranked almost last in Teso District because of the police activities. How much has the Government earmarked for the construction of this new police patrol base? We want to have these policemen out of the school compound very urgently.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, just adjacent to the school, we have a shopping centre with empty shops. As a temporary measure, why can the Government not house the police officers in the shops instead of displacing the pupils from their classrooms and the teachers from their houses?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister says the Ministry has earmarked Kshs200 million for the purchase and repair of outdated equipment that they have. There is a KARI sub-station in my district. You will find quite a number of tractors and equipment which are outdated. Is it not worthwhile for the Ministry to buy new machines and do an audit of the KARI sub-stations to find out what they usually do because most of the staff there, are very idle?
