    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not know how to proceed, perhaps you will guide me. But I have been talking to Sen. (Dr.) Machage about this particular amendment which was well intentioned and our aims are the same, but the Government cannot establish the Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board because that Board is a statutory corporation under an Act of Parliament and it is supposed to be independent, dealing with the discipline of doctors and dentists, which is an independent profession. Therefore, I have just talked with him and I felt that the proper wording ought to be:- “Urges the Kenya Medical, Practitioners and Dentists Board to decentralize and establish its offices in all counties in Kenya”. This, to me, will be in accordance with the law. Before I come to the merits, I just wanted to bring that to the attention of the Senate and I talked to Sen. (Dr.) Machage and he agreed that maybe this carries out our intentions well. So, I do not know how to proceed on it. One way is to debate that one and then bring this amendment, which will take more time. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
