    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to second the Bill. In seconding the Bill, I want to indicate that I have noted the issue that the Members have raised about public participation. Raising public participation is very key, because it is important for the public to be involved. However, I thank you for your guidance, because we will be giving a Report as a committee soon, which will indicate a report on public participation. However, we must note the urgency of the Bill in unlocking the revenue to the counties. The committee will bring amendments where the rubber meets the road, which is at the committee stage. We know that the Committee of the whole House is where we do the law making process. Since every Member has access to the Bill, they can give their views and perspectives on the Bill without necessarily having the benefit of the committee. By the time we are going to the Committee of the Whole House, Members will already be seized of the report of the committee and, therefore, they will be able to give meaningful contributions during amendments. When the mover was moving the Bill, he indicated that Kshs2.2 billion grant from the World Bank will be used to support UHC. On health care you know that this is something that touches the hearts of women and children. We know that there are a lot of women who have died and many who are suffering because of lack of access to healthcare, especially reproductive health The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
