    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I also have an issue with the proposed amendment to the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) Act, that is Section 4. While I have no problem with the amendment that is proposing that the membership of the board of NHIF fetches representation from the Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) and other federations of employees, I think it is high time we stopped now referring specifically to individual organizations. This is because there is the creation of several federations of employers and creation of federation of employees. So, we should not say FKE and the Central Organisation of Trade Unions (COTU). We should say the most representative federation of workers or organisation of workers or the most representative organisation or federation of employers. Let us not go to specifics because this is going to tie down the organisations or the NHIF in this case to a particular organisation that might not necessarily represent majority of the workers or employers.
