"content": "I plead with our colleagues here that this time round, we need to think about how we can ring-fence money to support our hospitals. In my county of Narok, we have a hospital, which was funded by the World Bank. It is not complete. We need to understand what our priorities are and healthcare should be one among them. I sit in the Standing Committee on Health and I hope we can actually discuss how to ring- fence money. We need to improve the bed capacity. There was a point when people were talking about Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital only having 216 beds. That was increased a little bit, but the population - people are migrating. There is a lot of rural-urban migration into the city. With that in mind, we have to think as a House that protects devolution and healthcare. We need to find a way to reduce the money which is allocated to the Ministry of Health because the budget allocated to the Ministry is almost six or seven times the amount of money which is allocated to county governments---"
