2. Debris: 40 per cent to be removed;

3. Education: build and staff 250 temporary structures; build and staff 60 fundamental schools in communal sections where no public schools exist; equip up to 3000 public and private schools; feed 250,000 children; provide up to 500,000 children with an education kit - manuals and uniforms; provide up to 500,000 children with financial assistance in private schools; and train 5,000 teachers;
