The Senate Health Committee has overruled the legality of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) that the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU), want the government to implement.
Chairman Migori senator Dr Wilfred Machage called on parliament to intervene, saying the CBA had been overtaken by events.
In the CBA signed in 2013, doctors are demanding for a 300 per cent salary increment. They have been on strike since December 5, 2016.
Speaking after meeting senior Health Ministry officials, Wednesday, to chat over the ongoing strike, they decried government's lack of commitment to end the strike.
The Committee also warned the National and County governments against intimidating and threatening the striking doctors.
They called on the Executive and Judiciary to play their roles in ensuring the doctors' strike is called off.
Dr Machage, on behalf of the Committee, also called on the officials and members of KMPDU to be patriotic and to favourably consider offers extended by government.
The Committee chairman extended an invitation to stakeholders to use Parliament as an arbiter to end the impasse.
