    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, aware that the Transition Authority and the Council of Governors operationalized the devolution of health services in the country from the auspices of the national Government to the county governments, as required under the Constitution of Kenya 2010; concerned that the delay in the devolution plan by the national Government has resulted in a broken public health system; deeply concerned that most health facilities have and are experiencing shortages of equipment, drugs and doctors resigning due to frustrations in carrying out their duties effectively, thus becoming a major obstacle to saving patients lives; noting that most hospitals have no adequate capacity to provide health services to the people, this House resolves that the national Government takes over provision of health services from counties, which have no capacity to provide such services, until such a time when county governments will be ready to take over such functions as contemplated in Section 15 of the Sixth Schedule and Article 187(1) of the Constitution of Kenya, 2010."
