20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly:
(b) I wish to comment on the second option of leasing, as put forward by the hon. Member. My Ministry is considering engaging development partners through the public- private partnership in order to improve on service delivery. This is focused particularly towards areas of infrastructure development and improvement as well as provision of medical equipment. In this regard, we are in dialogue with various interested parties in order to find a lasting solution. However, the trauma management centre remains a priority and the Government has to look for resources.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are people from those regions who are training as doctors, nurses and clinical officers. In the recruitment exercise, we will consider trained medical personnel from those regions, so that it would be easier for them to remain there.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in 1970, there was a report which was done by the World Health Organization (WHO). One of its recommendations was that a trauma hospital be build along Mombasa Road around Voi. They also recommended such facilities be put up in Naivasha Town and along Sagana-Nyeri-Nairobi Road.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, due to the budgetary allocations which are not enough, we, as a Ministry, are in discussion with development partners to see whether we can do this through the public-private partnership financial arrangement. In this regard, a Bill will come to Parliament. So, I hope this House will support me once that Bill comes so that we solve this problem once and for all.
