I am simply saying he will do so in consultation and collaboration ... view

• 12 Oct 2023 in Senate: The import of this amendment as per the previous ones is to allow the involvement of CoG in formulation of regulations, because the Clause 34 as it is, it will give the Cabinet Secretary total powers to develop regulations without consultation. I think it is necessary for him to consult the CoG given that health is a devolved function. view

Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Clause 41 lists a number of entities which shall provide E- Health Services. The last one is the foreign facilities, meaning foreign hospitals.

• 12 Oct 2023 in Senate: The import of the amendment is that Clause 52(2) is talking about the annual reports that shall be tabled in the National Assembly which include the Auditor General’s report, financial statements of the Agency, activities or programmes of the Agency, together with any other information related to the Agency. Considering that the agency shall be dealing with health data, it is important for the Senate to participate in this. I am simply removing “National Assembly” and replacing it with “Parliament” so that the Senate can be involved. view
• 12 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, after consulting the Clerks-at-the Table, I have realised that there is a typo on the Order Paper, which left out Clause 15 which I had an amendment on. view
