I visit some schools. I do not want the impression conveyed that I have made a liar out of anybody. I could spend three days a week visiting schools. How do I decide which schools to visit? I do not see my function as one of visiting schools, except where doing so is necessary or appropriate. I have on occasion been asked to visit a school and open a new extension and have referred such invitation to a senior party or Government colleague from the constituency concerned, which I believe is appropriate. In so far as this applies, that will continue to be my policy.
