    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, let me thank the Senate Deputy Majority Leader for raising that concern because this is a concern that I have also had as a Member. The Report on KEMSA was tabled in this House on 30th March, 2021. It has been on the Order Paper from Tuesday, 11th May, 2021, Tuesday, 18th May, 2021, Tuesday, 25th May, 2021, Wednesday, 2nd June 2021, all the way until 15th July, 2021. We have failed as a Senate because we have not gone ahead and debated that Report and adopted those resolutions of the Committee. It is upon us now to be able to deal with it because it has been there. The secretariat have been putting it on the Order Paper, but I am surprised that even now, we are prioritizing county government COVID-19 expenditures and leaving this issue of KEMSA which we spent a lot of taxpayers money investigating. I want to inform the Senate Deputy Majority Leader that it is a responsibility that we must take and I take that full responsibility as a Member of the Health Committee, but we have a chairperson. Thank you."
