    "content": "problem of having enough doctors to do work at that level. There was also talk about having enough equipment and laboratories. Again, that depends on the resource persons. Do we have the relevant staff? Do we need to train them? If we have to train more, where is the money going to come from? Are we going to ask those who have taken all our doctors and nurses to contribute to the kitty? That is where I am coming from. I am giving the experience on the ground. So, as we build we should request from the Government things which can be done. I think that we are fond of saying what and how we would like things done, without necessarily saying how they will be done and where the resources will come from. We also do not consider what is being devolved. Indeed, al the nurses are being devolved. Therefore, is it a national responsibility to provide doctors or that of the county governments? If it is the responsibility of the counties, where will the money come from? Madam Temporary Speaker, when we legislate we must also show if there are financial implications. If there are financial implications, we should show how we will raise that money. We all know that we have the devolved government and the members of the county assemblies are asking for salary increment. The national Government also has its responsibilities. So, even as we say that the Committee should ask the Government to undertake some things, we also should be sensitive as to where the resources will come from. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to support."
