Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Chuluni Dispensary is in a very populated area of Nzambani District in Kitui, Mutito Constituency. Could the Assistant Minister assure the House that if the community meets these approvals, he will be able to upgrade this to a district hospital and post a Medical Officer of Health immediately?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. We are just curious about which Government this Assistant Minister serves. When constituencies were made districts, automatically, District Commissioners, District Education Officers, District Roads Engineers, District Youth Officers and all Departmental Heads were posted to the districts. Is the Assistant Minister in order to purport to explain that the upgrading of other facilities can only be done through the initiative of the community while all the other departments were upgraded automatically by the Government?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Attorney-General the following Question by Private Notice. a) Why has the Government not been able to secure the extradition of Bishop Gilbert Deya and Mr. Yagnesh Devani from the United Kingdom? (b) How many arrest warrants from Kenya are with the Interpol for the arrest of persons who have fled the country after committing crime and could the Attorney- General table the details of the arrest warrants mentioned above?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the argument by the Assistant Minister does not hold water. District Commissioners, and all Departmental Heads, were posted automatically to the districts and the facilities followed later. Why can the Assistant Minister not consider posting a Medical Officer of Health and let the facilities follow later?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to purport to say that he cannot send doctors to the health facility because there are no facilities like theatres while in my own district hospital, I have several doctors and it is me, through the CDF, who is trying to source for funds to put up a theatre there?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. There is the issue of collective responsibility. This is Parliament and we know that there is one Government on the other side. Is the Assistant Minister in order to claim that he cannot deal with the issue while, under the collective responsibility, he should address that issue as the Government?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. We have seen cases where even the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security answers a Question for the Office of Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Finance. I want to plead that, rather than referring the Question to another Ministry, the same Assistant Minister who has tried very much, should go back and consult with the other Ministry and come back to answer the Question.
