    "content": "Licensed practitioners must always display their licences prominently at the premises of their practice so that everybody knows that so and so is a practising occupational therapist. The other aspect with human nature is that everybody wishes to be recognised. Such display will also serve as a way of recognising physiotherapists. Such recognition will motivate the practitioners in the profession. Of course, the professionals in this area may have started with small entities but because of varied knowledge, there has been diversification. Initially, medical practitioners could treat an ailment within an area by just injecting it with medicine. However, they can now just use physiotherapy to treat certain ailments. I commend the work that goes on at Parliament Health Club. Hon. Members are able to get physiotherapy services at Parliament Health Club. The services that we get at the health club have helped reduce a number of problems that many Hon. Members would be having. When you visit the health club, the ladies and the young men who work there work on you. As I said, once this is done, there must be a register. I do not know how best this could be done. I believe that we can have registers both at the national level and at the county level. This is so, so that those who want to check on the information at the county level can check from there and those who want to check from the centralised list can also check from there. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, with those few remarks I support the Occupational Therapists (Training, Registration and Licensing) Bill. Thank you."
