    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Senator for Trans Nzoia and Sen. Were for raising this matter. Health workers are the most mistreated workers among the cadre of county workers. They have strikes or threaten to down their tools in order to be attended to. As the Committee embarks on finding out what is going on, it will be important for them to find out the policies that counties have put in place for promotion of health personnel. We need to know policies that have been put in place to ensure that community health workers are remunerated. We have community health workers who attend to expectant mothers who work for no pay or consideration. This state of things is not tolerable. In my County Migori, particularly, all the community health volunteers, the ones we call “ Nyamrerwa” have no assistance, consideration or recognition at all. I request the Committee, through the person who will be responsible for receiving responses, to tell us what policies counties have in terms of remunerating community The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
