"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I want to congratulate my friend and colleague Hon. Eng. Stephen Mule for coming up with this very important Bill. For a very long time, the medical engineers in our Hospitals have been working without regulations. I want to congratulate him. I know we have a good number of products for Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) where I also graduated. At the outset, I support Engineer Mule for coming up with this very important Bill and as my friend has rightly put it, the medical engineers will have their morale boosted and with the regulations, they are going to do a good job. For a very long time, those engineers have been doing a wonderful job. A number of equipment or machines become dysfunctional in hospitals and the engineers are doing a very important job. I know that engineers who are qualified from outside have been getting into the job market without being controlled. Once the graduates come from outside, they will have to register with that particular board, so that quacks do not come to work on our equipment without regulation. The Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) has a good number of graduates. It has been unfortunate. For a very long time, KMTC has produced graduates who have been working in our hospitals without any regulations. Within a very short time, we passed a good number of Bills, so that we can have the graduates of KMTC having their own regulations. I know Hon. Mule is going to work on the issue of a money Bill. My colleagues have already indicated that if we work on it, the Kenya medical engineers who are in hospitals, including where I used to work in Kapkatet, are going to get a boost and they will have their own body."
