Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this matter is very sensitive and hon. Duale is my neighbour. I am aware of that incident and it is already creating an uproar in my constituency. That is because we share the boundaries. Could the Assistant Minister, perhaps, bring forth his deadline from one month - given the timetable of this House - to, at least, two weeks?

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to join my colleagues in condemning the brutality that we have seen in Tana River. It is a saddening occurrence and we do regret these inhuman acts, where human lives have been reduced to being equal to firewood, and the hands, legs and the head are chopped off. These are very unfortunate and unexpected circumstances. There are security offices in Tana River and the whole of Coast Province. There is the intelligence service officer, the Criminal Investigation Officers (CIDOs), the general duty officers, the District Commissioner (DC) and others, but all these incidents have ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, sack those who looked the other side when our people were being massacred. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, finally, so that I give the other hon. Members also time, let us start the process of reconstructing those houses. I want to commend what hon. Elmi did in Wajir the other day. He moved in, mobilized the civil society and made sure that the Government reconstructed people’s houses which were burnt. Can we do the same? At the same time, could the President order for a fund to be set aside to help the bereaved families and children ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, for over 800 Kenyans to be terminated is not a simple matter and, particularly so, for no reason of their making. What action has been taken against the officers responsible for that scandal?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for her answer. But you know it is one thing to say that you are trying to build capacity, and it is another thing to actually do it. Could the Minister provide evidence of what she is saying in terms of building capacity? That is because I do not see the Ministry doing that on the ground.

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This Question is very specific and is asking for specific details. The Assistant Minister has a general idea on what the ceiling of the Ministry is. Would I be in order to request that the Ministry responsible for Provincial Administration provides the details that the hon. Member has asked for? Could the Question be deferred?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for his answer. This theatre was constructed using funds from the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and the Red Cross largely. It is expected to serve largely a very remote area. Could the Assistant Minister undertake, now that he is speeding up this process, to deliver these to the hospital before the end of the year as he has indicated?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, like the Assistant Minister for Finance has told us, there are sector ceilings that have been allocated to this sector. I have no doubt that the ceiling for the sector where the Ministry of Medical Services falls has kept on improving.
