"content": "On the contrary, the issues raised in this Question seem to suggest some element of negligence on the part of the Ministry that handles matters to do with power lines. It talks about low-lying cables. Just a minute, Hon. Pukose. As a result of that, somebody suffered an amputation. In case the Ministry is responsible for some form of negligence, then obviously the Member is right to imagine that they should be responsible for the costs incurred as a result of that amputation. If the Ministry of Health came and said that that was caused by the negligence of the Ministry of Energy or the Kenya Power and Lighting Company (KPLC) then the Member will be left without any serious response. If they came and admitted to negligence, the Member is right to seek compensation from the Ministry that caused that amputation. In any event, since it is you, Hon. Pukose, to whom the Question is referred, I am sure you fit very well in both dockets. Being the Vice-Chair of the Departmental Committee on Health and a surgeon, I am sure you will find it very interesting to assist in giving a response to part (b) of the Question. The next Question is by the Member for West Mugirango, Hon. Vincent Kemosi Mogaka, who has requested that it be deferred on account of his absence from the Chamber with the leave of the Speaker."
