    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. At the outset I want to support the adoption of this Report together with the recommendations. This is a model hospital of its kind. It was a hospital built with funds from Exim Bank of China at a cost of Kshs8 billion which is a loan and we are supposed to start paying it from 2019. Unfortunately, the hospital is not yet operational. In fact, it is important for Members to note that the loan repayment will not be done by Treasury but by Kenyatta University or whoever will run the hospital. Currently, Kenyatta University has a faculty of medicine with students. The students currently are going to Thika, Machakos, Kiambu and other places for training. This facility should have been operational. We have met with the university, National Treasury, Ministry of Health and World Bank and this is what we got; the hospital is fully equipped and they require about Kshs656 million to test run. The university was also going to give Kshs230 million. They requested that these monies be factored in the Supplementary Budget for 2018/2019. The adoption of this Report will aid that."
