I see that the proposed amendments seek to change the board to a council. They not only do that, but they also seek to change the name to “Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dental Council”. The rationale for changing this is something I would beg to understand. In the definition proposed by the Committee at Page 1329, under the definition of “specialist”, it still talks of a medical practitioner or dentists. So, the definition seems to adopt the original description. So, I am a little bit at a loss."}
