    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member is right. We were faced with pending bills worth about Kshs2.8 billion when I took over the Ministry last year. Most of the bills emanated from the Kenya Medical Supplies Agency (KEMSA) who owed suppliers Kshs1.6 billion. However, the KEMSA pending bill has now been cleared with funds obtained from the Treasury. We hope that in the coming Budget, the Minister for Finance will allocate my Ministry enough money so that we can clear the small bills owed by Lodwar District Hospital and other hospitals so that small traders who supply food, equipment and stationery can go about their business. Some of the funds owed are as low as Kshs200,000. If we get this money, we will clear the debt so that the businesspersons that the hon. Member is talking about do not suffer."
