The Hon. Member is completely out of order. I want him to point to me one road in Likuyani that has been done by this Government. Just one.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to start from there. There is no single road that has been done by the Jubilee Government in my constituency. Fundamentally, I wanted to talk about two main issues. Let me also join my colleagues in congratulating the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing for work well done. I would like him to avail to Members all the roads, especially roads that fall under what we are now calling Kenya National Secondary Roads Authority and the county roads. It will be very good for all these ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wanted to ask the Chairman something. He is very busy talking to a colleague next to him. I want him to make available to us all the schedule of roads in every constituency so that we know which roads are Class C, which ones are Class D and the county roads. Secondly, I want to talk about the issue of equity, fairness and all that. I know a lot of things. The previous chairman has just been congratulating the Jubilee Government. This is something the Jubilee Government keeps talking about; that they have ...

He kept interrupting me. That is why I am telling him to relax.

Thank you. The whole question of equity and fairness is that every part of this country is considered. I hate it when Members of Parliament stand here and say that we should thank the Government for the good work they have done. The Government is executing the mandate of Kenyans on our behalf. We pay taxes. It is not a question of them The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

doing us a favour. The Government is not doing anybody a favour; they are doing a job which was given to them by the mandate of Kenyans and therefore we want to see the issue of fairness and equity. I have done very quick arithmetic. If 10,000 kilometres of roads have been done in this country, and if we look at equity and fairness, we should be seeing at least 34.5 kilometres of roads in every constituency. That is 10,000 divided by 290. I do not have a single road in Likuyani. I do not know where these 10,000 kilometres ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Before I support this Bill, it is my pleasure to announce that the Court of Appeal has released the officials of the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists’ Union (KMPDU). I will talk about that later. That crisis is now behind us. I rise to support this Bill because it brings order in the clinical officer’s practice and training. As it has been alluded to, we have many institutions training clinical officers. Some private universities have gone further to offer Bachelor of Science in Clinical Medicine. We must have a law that will assist us ...

to look at all those things and obviously, you cannot have a profession that is not regulated. That is what this Bill is trying to do. I just want to add two things. The institution that trains most clinical officers in this country is the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC). At the moment, the KMTC has expanded fairly well and I commend the Board that runs it. However, as a Government and as a country, I think we are not funding KMTC adequately. That is an area that we really need to look into so that KMTC can expand to ...
