This is a good practice that is working. For health it was 20 houses and for security it is 10 houses. Maybe we will find ways of marrying the two. Each community health workers is supposed to cover like 20 houses. We gave out 20 motorcycles and 20 bicycles in all constituencies so that the supervisors can move around supervising the community health workers. These people are then attached to the nearest dispensary or health centres. So, there are efforts to deliver health services to the people and especially at primary level which is what we call level 1. Madam Temporary Speaker, what I feel we should do as a Senate is to find ways of how to give incentives to these community health workers so that we can encourage them to do what they are doing and have them established all over the country. I launched the programme in six provinces but even where I did not launch, they also exist."
