Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to present the following report referred to the Committee by the Senate on 24th July, 2013 on the devolution of the responsibility of personal emoluments for nurses and clinical officers to county governments as requested by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. In accordance with Standing Order No. 224, the Standing Committee on Health, Labour and Social Welfare, on Tuesday 5th August, 2013 deliberated on the nurses and clinical officers’ petition laid on the Table of the House by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale on 25th July, 2013. After lengthy deliberation, the Committee resolved that the Cabinet Secretary for Health was best placed to answer the petition as the Ministry was devolving its services. Consequently, the Committee wrote to the Ministry of Health on the subject matter. The reply on the petition was received on Thursday, 19th September, 2013 and the Committee deliberated on it the same day. The Committee in its meeting held on Thursday, 19th September, 2013 deliberated on the submission from the Cabinet Secretary for Health and observed as follows:- (i) The county governments had not met the requirement for drawing devolved funds from the National Treasury and also had not acquired the necessary capacity to process payments. This had caused delays in payment of salaries in July, 2013."
