• 27 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the hon. Member is right. What pertained one year ago still pertains today because the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Finance has not changed its mind regarding allocation of resources to the Ministry in regard to Development Budget. Indeed, the allocation this year was a carbon copy of the allocation of the previous years. So, we have planned to put in place the necessary infrastructure that Matungu Sub-district Hospital needs but unfortunately, Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o does not have the account to withdraw from to view
• 27 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Executive proposes and Parliament allocates. If Parliament abrogates that duty then, indeed, the people of Kenya will hold Parliament responsible for abrogation of duty. view
• 27 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think I have said time and again in this House that our aim is to provide every district with a district hospital. The people of Kenya demand and require that. Indeed, in our hospital reform system, we have planned to have, first, sub-district hospitals where district hospitals do not exist and then upgrade those sub-district hospitals to district hospitals. This is our commitment. view

• 27 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Let me confirm to the hon. Member that we shall divide that Kshs300 million as fairly as possible and in terms of the need in each particular facility. So, this is not a lot of money and if you spread it too thinly, it may not be effective. However, in the case of Matungu, we shall give priority to a theatre, a radiology unit, a 100 bed in-patient service and the supply of other services, for example, mortuary. You will realise that we cannot do all of that, but we shall, in consultation with the Member of Parliament, decide what ... view
