Beatrice Elachi","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I appreciate the Cabinet Secretary for her elaboration that has made us understand the figures. With the figures, we realise that the interns are quite a good number and, as a House, we just have to think how to add her some budget. My question is this: The missionary doctors are being asked to pay Ksh500,000 per year for their work permit. I wish the Cabinet Secretary could look at that. This is because right now, when doctors are on strike, I believe the missionary doctors who come in as volunteers are the ones who have been working and most of them come for church missions. Let her look at that. I know she might not be able to answer here, but that is something we need to look at as a country. I do not know whether it is right to charge a missionary doctor Ksh500,000."}
