Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for allowing us to canvass this matter. Second, the report by this Committee does not answer my concerns. In a nutshell, there was a reason why I asked this question, specifically on Universal Health Care (UHC). It is either the Committee or the Ministry of Health is locking out this Senate from getting involved in UHC. This is because the Senators involved in the four pilot counties do not know what is happening on the ground. This is another scam. I am not afraid to say so this because we do not know what ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, their observations and recommendations are too vague. I would request you, the 60 days that are given is too long. Can we have an urgent intervention with proper answers to most of the questions not answered?

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I beg to move the following Motion- THAT, pursuant to Standing Order Nos. 28 and 29, the Senate do adjourn until Tuesday, 12th February, 2019. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is clearly guided by our Standing Orders. I believe that it is important for us to have this recess so that Members can constructively engage their constituents and counties and look at various issues that affect them. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have done well in this Session especially in terms of matters affecting our counties and devolution. Therefore, it is important for Members to go ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I believe that the leadership of the House should engage the relevant principals. This is because the reason the Senate is regarded as toothless is because we have not been effectively facilitated. We are always regarded as a House that is lamenting; just debating and doing nothing on the ground. If we were given this facilitation, we can audit what is happening on the ground, especially the matter that we have just concluded on the medical equipment.

6 Dec 2018 in Senate:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, if we are facilitated, I can confirm to you and to this House that the Senate can engage the relevant counties to give proper audit and even hire the services of independent auditors on matters that are affecting devolution.

I was in the last Senate in the Eleventh Parliament and we discussed this matter for almost four and a half years without a solution. We are back at it again. We are done almost one and half years without a solution. Where are we heading? If we do not take serious action, these five years will end without this Senate getting the facilitation that is required for us to deliver on our mandate.

6 Dec 2018 in Senate:
The matter of medical equipment and Universal Healthcare(UHC)that we have just debated is a matter of devolution that is the core mandate of this Senate. I think it is important for us to handle it properly. I would want the relevant Committee to engage the Ministry of Health so that we are on top of things. It is not a last minute matter that this Senate should be brought what has already been implemented on the ground. If I may give a very good example of the UHC, it was the only time that this Senate came to engage with ...

I am leaving it to the House and to you to make sure that the people of Isiolo County or the petitioners get justice in terms of the Petition before the Senate Committee. I do not want to dwell on that matter. I have heard what was discussed but I am not happy with what happened because matters sub judice are not matters of the Senate Committee or the House. They are matters of other independent entities to question the work of the Senate. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have not done very well in this area. We cannot indict ourselves ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I wish to join my colleagues in congratulating Sen. (Dr.) Ali, because this is a very important issue. It is, of course, important for us to regulate what is happening in terms of payment of parking fees.
