    "content": "What is going on is un-parliamentary too. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am sure the intention is exactly what it is. We, as a Committee, made various recommendations in this report. I hope you will consider giving me more minutes because some of my time has been “eaten” by hon. Members as they raised various points of order. . Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Government lost money in this scheme. Because of that loss of public resources that were paid irregularly to facilities that were not in existence to give service, we recommended that the following persons be investigated. The Registrar-General for not ensuring that Clinix Health Care Ltd. was registered to do business in this country properly. The Director of Medical Services who is also the regulator of service providers did not perform his functions effectively to advise the NHIF not to allow providers that were not licensed and registered by him to operate and be paid when they were, indeed, not in existence. The permanent Secretary of the same Ministry of Medical Services, who also sits together with the Director of Medical Service in the NHIF Board, be investigated. He did nothing to stop those payments to non-existing facilities. He did nothing to change that direction and approved payment by the NHIF Board. The Committee also recommended the Chief Executive Officer of the NHIF be investigated for the same reasons. Finally, we recommended that both the Minister for Medical Services and the Minister of State for Public Service be investigated."
