Therefore, this issue of the doctors is yet another example of what the Government is implementing. The national Government is trying to implement a policy decision and also make an Executive decision without consultations with the people’s legislature. Therefore, I hope that at the end of the day, this may go, but I think the suggestion which is being given by the Leader of Majority that we should have a committee of the Senate to look into this issue is a good suggestion. I think this may look all right now but down the line when problems arise, the matter will come back to us. In conclusion, I just want to give an example. There was a time when, during the Moi Government, there was the “Dream Team”. That Dream Team was supposed to resolve all problems which were facing the Executive at the national level. When the dream team came on board, the people in the public service who were in the higher echelons, but below the level of the dream team, said let them do the work. However, within a year, the dream team had collapsed. Therefore, the Cuban doctors cannot resolve the health problems and deficits in the medical sector without our own local doctors. Let us have an honest conversation about the issues of the doctors vis-a-vis the needs of the common mwananchi . I commend Sen. Khaniri for this Statement."
