The committee also received a petition regarding the alleged medical negligence and staff incompetency leading to the death of Ms. Annitta Jepkorir at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital. The committee is scheduled to consider this Petition and, consequently, respond to the petitioners as stipulated in the standing orders. During the period under review, 12 statements were referred to the committee for consideration increasing the tally of pending statements to 47. It is noteworthy, that the committee has also concluded consideration of 37 statements of the 84 Statements referred to it, representing a completion rate of 44 per cent. Whereas the committee has sought responses from relevant agencies, majority of the responses received have been unsatisfactory or contain inadequate information. With the foregoing, the committee has categorized all the pending statements into broad thematic areas and scheduled meetings with the relevant agencies to deliberate on the issues raised on their specific mandate. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, I wish to thank your office and the office of the Clerk of the Senate for the continuous support accorded to the committee in its work in executing its mandate. Lastly, I also thank Members of the committee for their diligence and contributions during the committee’s activities. I thank you."
