• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, my question is if she is deleting, are we getting back to where we are or is she proposing something to replace the deletion because that is normally the trend? view
• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the principal Act is supposed to be at the back of the Bill but that section is not there. That is what I was complaining about. Maybe, she is carrying it there. Anyway, she has used very many words, probably, to describe something very simple. I wish she could just make it smart, simple and to the point. She is being very verbose on a matter which ought to be straightforward. All I am asking is, if she is deleting, are we getting back to where we are or what is she replacing? view
• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This now makes sense because it says: “A university Council shall, as soon as practicable and in any event not later than three months after making of a statutory regulation under the Section, submit to the Cabinet Secretary for publication in the Gazette.” This makes sense. I agree. view
• 23 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, thank you for the opportunity. I want to agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that if these positions are elective, first of all, how are you going to realise this principle? The Temporary Deputy Chairlady view
• 22 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Senate Amendments on the Health Bill (National Assembly Bill No.14 of 2015). I am going to be very brief. The proposed amendment on Clause 5, seeking to introduce new Sub-clause (3) to ensure that the national Government and county governments provide free and compulsory vaccination for all children less than five years old and maternity care is good. This ought to have been in the provisions that we already have. However, before we are able to do this, we need to conduct accurate demographic surveys. I ... view

• 22 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: rights of Kenyans to access healthcare services as specified in the Bill of Rights. I have no idea why the Senate has seen it necessary to delete this clause. view

• 22 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: The proposed deletions on Clauses 30 to 67 have the effect of removing the Kenya Health and Human Resource Advisory Council, the Kenya Health Professionals Oversight Authority, and the regulation of health products and healthcare technologies. In my view, this will have the effect of turning provision of healthcare services in Kenya into some kind of cocktails that will differ from one county to another. Such a situation will not be good for us. We must have standards and uniformity in policies that govern healthcare services in Kenya. I would not like a situation where in Siaya County we will ... view
