• 7 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I wondered what the rationale was. Why the reduction from Kshs500,000 to Kshs300,000, especially when the law is going to be there for a long time, and the value of money is likely to go down? So, rather than keep on revising it, it is better to stick with a higher figure, so that it is a deterring factor for long enough, rather than reduce it and very soon, because of decline in the value of money, it will not be as deterrent as it should be.

Indeed, it was received overwhelmingly in the Ministry, and the Chief Nursing Officer has been very handy and useful to the hon. Member, not only in proposing more amendments, but making sure that this time we get it right. view
• 7 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, every year we get applications from about 10,000 Kenyans to enter Kenya Medical Training Colleges to train as nurses, but we only take about 2,000. That means that 8,000 Kenyans are being disappointed every year. At the same time with an extreme shortage of nurses we need a total of 67,000 nurses in the public sector. We only have some 26,000. So, the shortage is very big. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope that we will vote more money to the health sector, so that we can train more nurses. My Ministry is very ready to ... view
