• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: The Ministry has no plans to convert Mbale Rural Health training centre into MTC. Our plans are to revitalise the facility to function as originally intended - that is, as a centre for continuous professional development for serving health workers in Western Province. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the quest seems reasonable, but rural health training centres were established in the 1980s for the purposes of hosting in-service training for health workers who are of lower cadres. Their original number was seven, and they were distributed throughout the country. We have centres in Nairobi and Garissa. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: We have one national training centre located at Karuri, Kiambu District. The initial purpose was to train lower cadre professionals in the health profession. So, they were never meant to graduate into MTCs. The suggestion given by the hon. Member is worth considering. However, for this particular one, we want it to continue providing in-service training for lower cadre medical personnel. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is a reasonable request. However, for now, we are still continuing to offer certificate courses. We have to develop capacity in Garissa before we can do what the hon. Member has requested. Mr. Affey is a long-standing Member of Parliament. He knows that we can follow certain procedures, but he has to invoke that administrative mechanisms for us to create capacity. view
