    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was a little concerned that the Vice-Chairperson was seated there when the report was being read, but most substantively, on Kirinyaga, I am extremely concerned because what I have heard from the Committee about the situation raised by Sen. Kibiru, is not satisfactory. Kirinyaga residents are suffering, hospitals are closed and doctors have been fired. This is a similar case with Laikipia. I am actually a little surprised that the Vice- Chairperson says that they visited Laikipia and the correct position is that 61 doctors, were fired by the Governor. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I expected that we would have a more substantive statement on what exactly is ailing this industry and particularly, the functions of health. I raised this concern with Sen. (Prof.) Ongeri yesterday. It appears that if the Committee on Health does not put its foot down, Kenyans will start believing that the function of health should go back to the national Government. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
