    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, the apology by the honourable doctor, whom I did not know was still practicing, is too late and misplaced. There is no other organ other than the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board (KMPDB), which he is a member of, which licenses medical practitioners. The Board is singularly responsible for the proliferation of qualified or purportedly qualified and unqualified people practising medicine. In fact, it is the Board that has the culture of allowing people who are semi- qualified or, in fact, not qualified at all to practise. So, an apology is not enough. The Board ought to ensure that the profession is properly regulated so that it does not have such kind of people. Patients are also dying in the hands of qualified people in hospitals because of professional negligence which members of the Board hardly admit even when they are taken to court."
