    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for the very elaborate and detailed response, as well as for the measures he has promised to take to alleviate this problem. The two women lost their lives in the process of delivering babies. The lady from my constituency of North Horr had to travel 500 kilometres while in labour, from North Horr to Marsabit, and then all the way to Isiolo. She was not able to get the support she needed at the Marsabit District Hospital, the only hospital serving the larger Marsabit District. This was because there was no blood at the Marsabit District Hospital, yet the Ministry gives money to the hospital to secure blood even from the Meru District Hospital. In the past, that hospital has always managed to secure blood from Meru for emergency purposes. When women give birth they are assisted by the support they get from the neighbouring hospitals. Why were the authorities in this hospital not able to secure blood from Isiolo, yet the hospital gets Authority to Incur Expenditure (AIE) from the Government? Our women are losing their lives, and our babies are not being born in the right way."
