"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we all know that for a healthy nation, we must be able to have our doctors doing their work daily without interruption. We have heard the proposal by the Assistant Minister that the Treasury has availed some monies. As the other hon. Members have insinuated, we would like to know what it amounts to per doctor, because we appreciate why the doctors went on strike in the first place. What is that proposed amount for each doctor? What return-to-work formula does the Assistant Minister have urgently, so that our hospitals resume duty and our patients get treatment immediately we leave this Chamber today?"

"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wish the Assistant Minister could know that in 1967 when Prof. Maina Mungai and Prof. Nelson Wanyama Awori left Makerere University to come and start the School of Medicine at the University of Nairobi, they never wanted to train our doctors so that they leave and go to the United States of America and Britain. That is brain drain. The doctors we are losing are unique brains in the international community. Today, Prof. Jaoko and Prof. Omu Anzala are on the verge of getting a breakthrough in fighting HIV/AIDS through a vaccine. Dr. Noreh today provides an answer for infertile women through test tube babies, and the Assistant Minister thinks that the issue of brain drain is a joke. What is he doing, as a strategy, to ensure that from tomorrow when we want the doctors to resume duty, none of them will leave the country but will remain, work and die in this country? Finally, can he confirm what percentage in the School of Medicine is comprised of Module II doctors, whom he is bragging that they are the only ones from the rich families who leave the country? By the way, he must be a Member of Parliament for a constituency in Tanzania, because all Kenyan Members of Parliament know that we do harambees to meet the cost of maintaining Module II students at the universities."

Could the Assistant Minister accept that the late Suleiman Ali from Kinango passed away on Monday at the Coast General Hospital? Lastly, could he stop answering questions with emotions and tell us what the Government has counter offered in that proposal from the doctors in terms of allowances or salaries?"

So, I will also urge hon. Members that when it comes to the budget of the Ministry of Medical Services, it should be given a high priority. When we look at our budget, we see that it cannot be used to do all these things at once. However, as a Ministry, we have actually “possibilized” the impossible with very little resources that we have been getting from the Treasury, and which have always been passed by this very House."
