• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the hon. Member made a correct observation of this Vote. It is true that, in fact, the support that we got from the Global Fund include hiring of extra support-staff. Those are health workers such as nurses, clinical officers and medical laboratory technologists. That is why you are seeing it here. On our own part, the Government of Kenya has also put in some money, but in the Recurrent Expenditure. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, we are yet to train. I am sure hon. Members have noticed the number of people who are on anti-retroviral drugs (ARVs). They are being treated today more than ever before. So, that money will be used for that. We have also introduced new malaria drugs. We also have to train people on that. That is at the rural health facilities. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: It is the Ministry of Health, policy that wherever August 7, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3011 we send health workers, we send drugs. So, once we send health workers, we know that we must send drugs to those facilities. But we will continue to gazette them. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, so far, we have gazetted about 600. We will continue to gazette them as we continue to employ more health workers. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you. You have brought that to my attention. Where we have any facility that we have gazetted, we will open it. We will ensure that there are drugs and health workers. They only get one nurse. The nurse is supposed to work from Monday to Friday, so that he or she can take an off and come back to work on Monday. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, is that Siakago? But with that Kshs30 million, we will look at where the need is. We will be sending money to those facilities through the districts. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, it is just that we did not put an "s". It is: "Construction of Buildings"! view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: These are grants coming from some of our development partners. So, they say we are putting in Kshs30 million. When we sit down, we will decide on where to put the money. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I would like to tell the hon. Member that his observation is right. This is a grant of Kshs30 million that we got from Italy. They would like us to put it in our dispensaries. It will be decided where they will be put. view
• 7 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Yes, you could benefit! view
