"content": "I have no doubt that Hon. Mutahi Kagwe is up to the task. As has been said, he served as a Senator and now he has been nominated to serve in a Ministry in which most of the functions are devolved. He has the experience and that coupled with his ability, I am sure he is going to resolve those issues. I have also seen the way he responded to questions put by the Committee on issues of Universal Health Care (UHC), the high cost of health care, lack of medicine in our health institutions, matters National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF). Indeed, he responded very well. He needs to implement that and we will give him support. The other nominee is Betty Maina who had served as a PS in one of the departments and is now going to be in charge as the CS if approved by this House. She was the PS in the Ministry of Industrialisation and Trade and I am sure she will address issues to do with trade especially on the Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that have been tough on them. Those are the enterprises that are oiling our economy. There is the issue of pending bills, about Ksh58 billion save for the Ksh15 billion which was said to be payable. Those are the issues that Betty Maina, if approved, needs to handle very well. We have the Uwezo Fund, the Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF), the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF) and there was a proposal by His Excellency the President The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
