    "content": "The best place to start would be the health sector and the crisis that we have just experienced and identify why nurses reported in some counties and not others. How come some counties are a little bit ahead with the implementation of universal healthcare than others? Madam Temporary Speaker, another important aspect is to talk about the database. This is where we have the base line survey that the Mover of this Bill talked about. Where does that the database begin? Who is where? Where are the pensioners? What is the general level of what the status quo might be? Sometimes, when looking at database, it is unfortunate because in Kenya, we rely on archaic database. We also do not use the database for secondary data, real evaluation and analysis over and over again. An example is the household we are talking about in Turkana. We know that Human Development Index (HDI) in Turkana is 0.33 per cent but what about the specific different households and their various addresses? This is because if a person wants to come up with an immunization platform, to reduce life expectancy or address a specific issue, they need to have the salient data for each of those households. For example, are their pensioners? Are they getting their social protection money and what exactly is happening there? Therefore, it is a lot of work but it is possible because it is well enshrined within the Bill of Rights, which as I said earlier, the purpose is to recognize and protect the fundamental rights. They belong to each individual and are not granted by the State. They can only be enhanced by the State, as alluded to by Sen. Murkomen earlier on."
