and courier services and you would recall that an L. I. passed through this House and has become law now. It is important for us, as a country, to make sure that the Regulations are followed rigorously; because postal and courier services may be the route by which all kinds of people, including terrorists will begin to pass through dangerous materials that could affect all of us.
Therefore, the Ministry, in getting this approval, must also intensify and ensure that the Commission does the right thing.
Parliament has looked at it and it is important. I would wish that the Commission should look at this very carefully and also ensure that other services are regularly inspected as indicated in the Report.
Mr Speaker, I would also want to talk about the e-Health, and that is on page 12 of the Report. The Integrated e-Health System would help us greatly. Apart from improving the technology in disease detection and treatment by experts elsewhere and in the remote areas of our country, we are by these integrated health services, going to reduce the construction of huge facilities –– hospitals and big structures which are more costly.
If we integrate our health and use the e-Health, it would reduce the cost of running health but improve on the quality of our health in this country.
I will urge the Hon Minister to work closely with the Ministry of Health, such that this becomes a reality, and what obtains elsewhere can be done in Ghana. Like in the rural areas, you could have the doctor in the urban areas giving the instruction to health staff and health workers, so that they can take care of complex conditions before they can move them.

[MR CHIREH]
I urge that the Ministry should take this serious and ensure that the Integrated e-Health System is part of our health delivery.
