Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. It is always good for the Leader of the Majority Party to also know that governors are called His Excellency. I was not on record referring to anybody as His Excellency. Can he prove that I referred to the Member for Gatundu as His Excellency? But dreams are also valid. Some want to become governors.

THAT, the Schedule to the Bill be amended in the proposed amendments to the National Hospital Insurance Fund Act No. 9 of 1998− (a) in the proposed amendment to Section 3(2)(a), by deleting the proposed new sub-paragraph (ii); This section, for the benefit of the Members, was an introduction of the requirement of the employer to match the contribution of the employee.

That means this money must come from somewhere.

This is to align the Act with the recently enacted Health Act No.21 of 2017 which establishes the Office of the Director General for Health who shall be the technical advisor to the Government on all matters relating to health within the health sector. Since the original paragraph (e) of the Act provided for the Director of Medical Services as a member of NHIF Board, it will be prudent to substitute him with the Director General for Health as opposed to substituting with a person from the public sector.
