"content": "(1C) The Cabinet Secretary responsible for matters relating to health shall publish the names of the persons nominated under paragraphs (d), (e), (f) and (g) in the Gazette. This is basically to spell out the composition of the Board. I am proposing that we have a chairperson appointed by the President. Of course, the qualification is put there. The second one is the PS in the Ministry of Health or a representative appointed by him or her. Part (c) is the Principal Secretary in the ministry for the time being responsible for matters relating to finance or his or her representative, reason being this being a Fund, certainly, you need representation from the National Treasury or the Ministry of Finance. Then (g) is one person nominated by the Federation of Kenya Employers to represent employers’ interests because they are a major contributor - one person nominated by Atwoli, basically. Anyway, the Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU). Then, there will be one person not being a governor nominated by the Council of Governors (CoG). Again, county governments are going to make contributions. You need to take care of that interest. Then, two persons, not being public officers, appointed by the Cabinet Secretary, and of course, the ex-officio member who is the Chief-Executive Officer. I remember we agreed, unfortunately the clerks have just given me this, with the Chair that we would include health professional oversight. There was a debate. I do not know how we are going to capture that, that we need to include doctors or health providers. The Chair can move that specific amendment."
