"content": "operators and even the normal people who have taken loans to buy their cars and who get emergencies in hospitals. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, imagine that someone has gone to visit a person who has prolonged stay in hospital. The hospital is making money from the patient and it will still make more money from the visitor. It is immoral. We must legislate against this thievery, which it is. It has been done in other parts of the world. The Scottish Parliament has passed a law to outlaw charges in any hospitals, be it private or public. We can do it here in Kenya. We do not have to borrow from those jurisdictions. I remind the Senate, that the United Kingdom (UK) has identified categories of people. Persons Living with Disabilities (PWDs), their caregivers, workers of the national insurance and hospitals will not pay. They have been able to categorize and decide which category of people can pay. There is a possibility for us to bring legislation that will control this kind of greed. I beg my learned Sen. Sifuna, to take it further and bring a legislative proposal here, so that we can start dealing with people who are stealing from the people of Kenya. I support."
