"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, otherwise, I do know that this is very emotive issue not only in Kenya but worldwide and that is why we have declarations all over the world like the Helsinki Declaration, the Geneva Declaration and so on. All these bodies are aiming to safeguard the safety of individuals from professionals or people who are trained to offer those services. So, I want to suggest that we amend this Motion so that the Medical Practitioners and Dentist Board can have a branch in every county. It should sit in every county and address the grievances raised in that county. This is of immediate concern rather than having to go and change the Constitution so that policies can be moved to the county. It is important that we respond because it is very important but we need to do it in a proper manner by looking at what the law offers and what we can do within the law. With those few remarks, I beg to support this Motion because it addresses individuals but I wish to suggest that we make some amendments that are appropriate."
