"content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Health, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No. 44(2)(c). It regards the unlawful detention of the body of Mrs Priscilla Nyokabi Gaku by Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) Farewell Home. The late Ms Priscilla Nyokabi Gaku was admitted to the KNH Private Wing on 2nd April 2024, under inpatient number IPOO75640. Ms Gaku was treated in hospital for 43 days but unfortunately lost her life on 30th May 2024, leaving an outstanding bill of Ksh1,155,486. The family was only able to raise Ksh234,000. As a result, the hospital unlawfully detained the body of the deceased and demanded that the family offset the pending bill. The continued detention of Ms Gaku's body by the hospital has subjected the family of the deceased to inhumane torture. It is against this background that I request a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Health on the following: 1. Reasons for the detention of the body of the late Ms Priscilla Nyokabi Gaku by the KNH from 30th May 2024 to date. 2. Steps being taken to ensure that the family of the deceased can collect and bury their loved one without any further delay. 3. Measures being taken to curb detention of patients and bodies by hospitals due to pending bills that continue to accumulate during periods of such detention."

Hence, it is an urgent matter."
