    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. I want to present a Public Petition by the residents of Trans Nzoia County on the irregular purchase of Trans Nzoia County Referral Hospital. I, The undersigned, on behalf of the residents of Trans Nzoia County, draw the attention of the House to the following. (i) That Article 227(1) requires that when a State organ, or any other public entity, contracts for goods or services, it shall do so in accordance with a system that is fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost effective. (ii) That the County Government of Trans Nzoia, as a public procuring entity, has been contravening the said Article of the Constitution. (iii) That recently, the County Government procured an abandoned structure ostensibly to set up Kitale County Referral Hospital. (iv) That no valuation of the property or public participation as envisaged under Article 174(c) of the Constitution was carried out before the said purchase. (v) That the current location of the proposed Kitale County Referral Hospital is close to Kitale District Hospital, which is already serving the area around Kitale Town and has minimal room for expansion. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
