    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Ol Kalou District Hospital was gazetted as a Level 4 facility (district hospital) through Gazette Notice No.3142 published on 16th June, 1995. (b) The hospital’s equipment and facilities are functional. (c) The hospital has been rendering services to the people of Nyandarua County and, for all intents and purposes, the people have for a long time known that it is open. As I have already indicated, the facility was gazetted in 1995 and there has, therefore, been no need to gazette it afresh as a Level 4 hospital. As regards equipping the facility to serve residents of Nyandarua County effectively, our position is that, like other public hospitals in the country, Ol Kalou District Hospital has functional equipment which the Ministry will continue to progressively improve or replace as funds become available. Notwithstanding the foregoing facts, the Ministry on 10th July, 2012 issued Gazette Notice No.9811 renaming the facility in honour of the late J.M. Kariuki. This was the culmination of related deliberations by the town council of Ol Kalou and a formal request to the Ministry to effect the change dated 6th July, 2012. The renamed hospital was officially launched by the Right Hon. Prime Minister and my boss, Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o."
