    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to comment on SHA. I do not know why people get offended or worked up when we say SHA is working. What else are we supposed to say? There is addiction to bad news in the country. Leaders must begin to live and know that they are dealers in hope. I celebrate because I have visited four out of six sub-county hospitals in my county. For each of those hospitals that I have visited, the one thing that I ask all the patients is, “Were you registered with SHA before being admitted?” For all those who told me that they had registered before, SHA made part of their bill as any other insurance would. So, if we report back, we are only doing our duty because that is the work of a representative of the people. The issue that has been brought by Sen.

I know that 95 per cent to even 99 per cent of The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
