"content": "doctor at Naivasha Hospital would call Kijabe Hospital to tell them he is referring a patient there. By the time the patient gets there, there is a bed. Referrals are done because of incapacity, and not because of a doctor. It is because of equipment and the expertise required on a patient. The most unfortunate thing - and I have just checked with Hon. Didmus Barasa - is that the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Health comes to the Floor to reject the amendment and yet, they did not call the Mover to the Committee. We need to be responsible. If a Member moves a Bill on health or any other matter, let the relevant Committee call the Member so that they can iron out the issues together. They need to understand where the Member is coming from and what exists. It is confusing to the House. I have heard three doctors who belong to the Committee reject the amendment and yet, they would be the best people to advise the Mover of the Bill on how it should be done."
