State-owned polytechnics and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions are set to benefit from a new National Treasury policy that redirects unserviceable government vehicles from public auctions to training use.
In a shift from the long-standing disposal practice, Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi has announced that grounded State vehicles will instead be transferred to TVET institutions as training aids. This marks a departure from auctions, where proceeds were previously channelled to the Consolidated Fund or respective Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs).
