  • 22 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: That particular nurse, Mary, was supposed to look after about 40 patients in a ward in that particular night. She was unwell and that is the report we got. The question that begs for an answer is the systems that KNH has. They have standard operating procedures that are never followed. Why? It is because there is laxity on the part of management. Nurses fall under the director of nursing, a director of clinical services and an accounting officer. It is a systemic failure that needs to be addressed. That is why I support this Report in its amended form ... view
  • 22 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: There are some emerging issues that need some reaction, but there are no plans. It is painful. Luckily, as a Committee, this House and as a Government, I want us to think about the county hospitals that we have. They do not have the capacity to handle some cases. It is not that they do not have the capacity; it is because they are not building it. Every year, we allocate money to county governments. What do they do with that money? They buy ambulances so that when they have patients, they rush them to KNH. So, KNH is overloaded. ... view
  • 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. It is long overdue. I wish it came in a few years ago. We would not be having the insanity that we see on our roads. I congratulate the drafters of this Bill because it has captured a wider area and I can tell you for sure that once this Authority comes into being, there are so many issues that are going to be solved especially traffic jams and the many hours that are wasted on the road. Once this Bill is ... view
  • 15 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
  • 28 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the opportunity to support this Motion on Approval of Appointment of the Principal Secretary for State Department for Health. I am a Member of the Departmental Committee on Health and I support the appointment of Peter Tum as the Principal Secretary in this ministry. Looking at his curriculum vitae (CV), I can confirm to the House that Peter Tum fits the bill. He is the best appointment that the President made for this ministry. He is bringing in a lot of experience having been the CEO of the Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC). ... view
  • 22 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
  • 22 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, looking at the House, there is no quorum and this is a Bill of national importance. I guess, with your permission, we could postpone debate and maybe, resume when there is quorum in the House. view
  • 22 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. view
  • 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. My name is Kwenya Thuku not Kweyu. I am the Member of Parliament for Kinangop. I rise to support this Bill. It could not have come at a better time than this. We are living in very interesting times whereby our constituents still believe in the traditional MPs where an MP is supposed to construct roads, provide education and water for his constituents and those kinds of things. Down in our constituencies, our voters have not realised that there is a devolved system of Government. Such being the case, this Bill has come at ... view
  • 21 Feb 2018 in National Assembly: roles of what each authority is supposed to do. This is a clear demarcation of roles of what each authority is supposed to do. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, a case study is Nyandarua where there are no roads. Traditionally, there are roads that were maintained by KeRRA. There is none that was maintained by KeNHA. view
