    "content": "In the Ksh1.6 billion that is unaccounted for, we are just looking at the SAGA, but the Ministry of Health is the one that is holding the finances and human resources despite the fact that the hospital has a Board of Directors and a Chief Executive Officer (CEO). We have been told that the Kenya Society of Physiotherapists (KSP) has, for many years, never filed any financial reports. With the many accidents we have and Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) requiring physiotherapy, it is really a concern. I think the reason why they are not auditing is because the funds are kept at the Ministry of Health and diverted to other more pressing issues. An example of an institution that is autonomous is Kenyatta University Teaching, Research and Referral Hospital (KUTRRH). It is independent. It has its own Board of Directors. It has its own money and it makes its budget. We can ask for their audited reports but to ask for audited reports from entities that do not control their own resources and expenditure is a problem. In that case, if budgets are made at the Executive level, we will never achieve universal health care. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
