24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Nyikal is right. Parliament has received a letter from the Executive, through the parent ministry, stating that they are preparing a more comprehensive Bill. That letter is a document of the House. Through the Departmental Committee on Health and the leadership, we will hold you to account if you do not table that law in the next three months. They must be aware. Hon. Nyikal, you have worked in Government. You cannot give them one month, particularly when Christmas is around the corner. In three months, the ministry will table a more comprehensive piece of legislation concerning this item, ...

24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support the amendment, but you will guide us because based on the letter I received and communicated to Hon. Speaker, Sections 35D, 35E, 35F, 35G, 35H, 35I, 35J and 35K will go through the same fate. We are deleting them because they all concern the National Quality Control Laboratory. Procedurally, we need to deal with them one by one, but we could save on time.

Because we have not resolved what Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo has raised, what we have in the Bill is “dental”. So, the Chair must move in an amended form and say “the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board”. I think you can give a chance to the Chair.

I agree, but this is an amendment in the Bill. We cannot amend it. Given an opportunity, we need to do a recommittal at some stage so that all the terminologies recurring in the Bill are in conformity.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Members of this House who belong to either medicine or dentistry profession must declare their interest. We are becoming victims of the war between diploma and degree holders.

24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly:
I will give you a reason, Hon. Nyikal. In the Bill, the term “dental” was covering both degree and diploma holders. That was the essence of the Bill. But here, degree holders are more and they have now forced us into using the term “dentists”. Hon. Otiende Amolo will agree with me that when we were doing the Law Society of Kenya law, lawyers in the House declared their interest. Those of us who have no medical background are about six and are trying to legislate a law. That is why Dr. Pukose is not leaving the House. By this ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, you have to protect us and you must be careful. The Members who are agitated have a stake in the law that we are passing.

24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the way we are moving, we will end up with everybody saying how they think it should be and we make further amendments. This is a technical matter; either the House will agree with the amendments found on the Order Paper or not. We should go that route. If we start proposing how it should have been… You had an opportunity to file an amendment and you never did it.

I want to ask the Chair, in the interest of time, to just say that we are replacing the Board with the Council. You are giving a lot of stories.
