    "content": "addressed by the right Senator who is also a health practitioner. This Bill addresses issues that can make a difference in the health profession. All citizens, in any part of the country, should be assured of being able to have professionals in their local hospital. There are hospitals in Nairobi County which are almost as good as if not better than the referral hospitals in the counties. The referral hospitals in the counties are struggling. Whenever we attend the Devolution Conferences, we are always given statistics on the state of hospitals in the counties as well as the outreaches that have been happening. However, the data that they give us at such conferences is not detailed enough. They do not give the comparison or an idea of a macro view of what is happening in terms of the devolved function of health. There is a reason why the health function was devolved. Let us ensure that the devolved health function works for this country and that is a responsibility of the Senate. I congratulate Sen. (Dr.) Ali for this Bill. I hope that once the Bill gets to the Committee stage, we can make the necessary changes which will make this Bill be realized within our legislative regime. I thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
