    "content": "KNH was operating very well. However, when the current CEO took over, things started going bad. We have been told that the present CEO is under investigation but here we have already judged her for poor performance. That means she will never get a job anywhere in this country. Let us be very careful as Members of Parliament. We should not judge a person before we get the full report. I am saying this Report is biased because of the issue of collective responsibility. We cannot judge one person and say that he was responsible for the mess at KNH. We must remove politics from this issue. I agree with the chairperson. He said that we must remove politics, but we cannot remove politics from one side and leave it on the other side. We must make sure that the problems facing KNH are eradicated completely. The CS in charge of health must also be accountable to what is happening at KNH. Why? The appointing authority of the board is the Ministry. So, if the Ministry appoints a board which has failures and which is not performing, who should be blamed? It is not the board, but the appointing authority. So, if we want to make KNH the best hospital in this country, we must also take some responsibility and tell those who are involved: “You are the ones responsible for this mess.” However, when we pass judgement against one side, then we fail to make KNH the best place to go for treatment. The Report does not give directions. There is no action plan that has been given to us or to those concerned. When you do not give directions in any report, that report is bound to fail. You must give directions and task people. Later on, you will be able to question those people you had tasked, but if you leave it open, nobody will be responsible. We need to learn to task people to do their assignments very well."
