    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the sentiments and comments expressed by my colleague. The one thing that I have to seek the Senate to be aware of is the necessary bottlenecks that may be put in the path of the management of health services at the county level. I also believe that there are certain legislative issues that need to be looked at. The Waste Management Act was last amended in 2006 and does not address the population increase and the increased industrialization in this country. That needs to be looked at. The Food and Drugs Act that manages food might not be fully implemented because of the apathy of officers at that level due to issues of payment of salaries for health staff at the county level. Once money flows well to the counties, we will have a more effective way of managing our health environment. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
