Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, last year, the Government imported some machinery for road construction. Was it from China or somewhere? It was placed under units. For the case of Teso, Bungoma and Busia, it was in Bungoma. But the conditions that have been put in place are so difficult that even the engineers in those respective districts cannot even hire that equipment. What measures is the Assistant Minister putting in place to make it very easy for even a Member of Parliament--- If he wants to hire a grader, he can do so in a few minutes and do the ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in part "a" of the reply the Assistant Minister says he is not aware. This is because the Government has run away from Mt. Elgon and left the people to govern themselves. First of all, the District Education Officer has fled. The District Commissioner does not stay there. The heads of departments have run to Bungoma where they are staying. All the teachers have fled. So, the Assistant Minister cannot be aware of what is happening there. Since the Provincial Commissioner is the Chairman of the Provincial Education Board, is the Assistant Minister aware that he ...
