"content": "I can see my friend, Hon. the former Principal Secretary is agreeing with me. It is because matters of healthcare in counties have a lot of challenges. We have seen this happening in my own county. You will find that issues are not running; issues of human resource management are becoming a problem. So, it is indeed important that we look at such piecemeal amendments as we move on. There is the issue of the Kenya Medical Supplies Agency. It is the only body in this country which has been getting drugs for purposes of supply. When counties realise that they have a lot of outstanding bills with KEMSA, they have been trying to see how they can source medication through another body or elsewhere. Sometimes it is from a given chemist where there is the aspect of collusion. This has led to wastage of funds in the county governments. We need to bring this issue of regulation in future. I need Hon. Nyikal to note that Mwongozo was done at State House. It was never debated on the Floor of the House. We cannot continue amending everything and saying we are relying on or aligning it to the Mwongozo . To me,"
