    "content": "(i) Frequent consultative meetings with the KNUN and other stakeholders were held to update each party on developments. (ii) In the period leading to the calling off of the strike, a consultative meeting involving the Ministry of Health, the national Government, the county public service boards, the CoG and the KNUN was convened to find a common understanding and resolve the strike. The meeting achieved this objective and, thus, resulting in the signing of a return to work formula. Among the agreements reached was the commencement of conclusion of the CBA by the nurses within 30 days. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is the answer in my position as the Senate Majority Leader. Once the committees are formed, the Committee on Health will have to do a thorough job on the Health Bill and the implementation thereof and proper auditing of what we now call referral hospitals. There have been many strikes surrounding the area of health and we need to resolve that. I hope that the Members who will serve in the Committee on Health will do a thorough job to end the continuous strikes. We must look at health structure and ensure that those who serve in the counties accept where they serve and that not all counties will have strikes at the same time. It will depend on which county has met their commitment with the health workers. In future, the Committee of Health should lead this House in doing a thorough audit of the laws and issues. Unless there are follow-up questions, I will issue the next Statement."
