"content": "Provision of health is devolved except for referral hospitals, namely, KNH, MTRH, NSIRH, MNTRH and the KUTRH. The Report says that hospitals lack land for expansion and do not have enough equipment or facilities like beds and laboratories. We must welcome the Report with both hands as opposed to treating it like the other reports which are normally brought to our attention and then taken to the shelves to gather dust. In the Big Four Agenda, which was introduced by the President, health is one of the components. It is unfortunate that since Independence, the status of our hospitals is unimaginable. If you go there, you will be surprised and wonder whether you are in another country. I might not be able to say which country, but you might not be in Kenya. It is high time we made sure that our hospitals have been upgraded to ensure that our people are covered. The President is trying to safeguard the issue of the UHC to ensure that by 2020, it is attained at 100 per cent. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I need your protection from my colleague here who is pressuring me to wind up. He has to wait for his time. Please, intervene."
