    "content": "English and where I come from are close partners. Suffice it to say, we rarely make mistakes. As a Committee, we need to bring ourselves up to speed, so that there is no incessant delays on clearing of this backlog that we have before us. My sister, Hon. Millie said that we need to put in more money to NG-CDF, so that it carries out civic education by conducting trainings to the committees down in the constituencies. However, it needs to go beyond that. Many people still confuse the roles of NG-CDF and those which are undertaken as a devolved function from the counties. Many times when somebody is sick and hospitals lack medicine; there is no water in a place; and roads are dilapidated, queries about them are presented to an MP. That civic education that ought to be quickly undertaken, should also delve into letting the public know the roles of both the County Government and what NG-CDF needs to do. With that, I thank you and I support the Motion."
