"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am quite happy that the good Senator knows that Maasai people look good. Anyway, I would like to inform Sen. Cherargei that KEMSA has got two arms. One, they are partners with international community like United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the other is funded by our own taxpayers money. The most important thing and I appreciate your submissions is that instead of denying Kenyans access to medicine, because there is a law--- The KEMSA Act prohibits county governments from purchasing medicine from any other person apart from KEMSA. I appreciate Sen. Cherargei making comments and suggesting that the international community should not partner with Kenya until this matter is resolved. I think a small arm of KEMSA or sub-committee should be established to deal with the issue of donor agencies. You know very well with the current ruling, this Senate cannot even oversight on funds which have been given to this country by donor agencies. I just wanted to inform the good Senator and thank you for allowing me to inform him."
