    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support this Bill. A lot has been said in terms of the merits of the Bill. Let me also add some value on how these regulations, which have been termed as policies, ought to be made. They ought to be made in such a way that there are no bureaucracies because of the urgent situations of medical issues. That is because when those regulations come, they ought to make it very easy for them to be obliged by the users. Another thing that needs to be looked into is that when obliging the counties to do their jobs because the medical issues are devolved, they should also be made not to abdicate their responsibilities because you find very minor cases being referred to Kenyatta National Hospital by counties who do not want to do their health responsibilities at their level. Another issue that needs to be looked into is empowering the country at large and the counties in equipping them with the requisite equipment for treatment and especially in the cancer sector. I have seen a lot of money has been mobilized for COVID-19, but we have not seen that being done in other cases like cancer. I think this is the right avenue for that to be done by the Government. I thank you and support."
