    "content": "Mr. Chairman, Sir, I want to express my dismay at the allocations which have been made to Level 5 hospitals. I want to echo my serious concerns at the allocations which have been given to Level 5 hospital in Kiambu, that is, Thika Level 5 Hospital. The budget of Thika Level 5 Hospital is Kshs500 million. Last year, we received Kshs367 million almost Kshs150 million short but to my dismay and to the dismay of the people of Kiambu, Machakos and Murang’a Counties, who come to seek treatment in Thika, we have been allocated a paltry Kshs87 million which is a reduction of over Kshs300 million. I want to declare with any iota of doubt that there is going to be a major crisis. We must deal with this matter not only expeditiously but with finality and offer a way forward. I want to propose that the Chairperson and the Committee of Finance, Commerce and Budget undertakes immediate steps to ensure that they initiate a process that will ensure that the balances required are included in the Supplementary Budget."
