The shortage of doctors in our country is because of the poor conditions they work under. Could the Assistant Minister tell us how many qualified doctors we have employed in a hospital like Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH)? Could he also confirm that the people providing medical services at KNH are actually students from the universities and not doctors who are on the payroll?"

When you look at the number of trained doctors, and considering the resources that have been put into the post-graduate training of doctors, it is clear that the doctors who have been trained are equal to the number of those who have left the service in the same period. What is the Assistant Minister doing to ensure that this is stopped, and that we have doctors who have been trained using the public resources retained in service? We should not continue having hospitals that do not have doctors to serve the public!"
