    "content": "adopted by the House. The Board should take up that task and provide funds for the social impact assessment of the NG-CDF since its establishment. For this Fund to be safe, as Members have put it, it should be a constitutional fund like the Equalisation Fund, so that it is not under any threat from any regime that assumes power. As it is, somebody can say, “In my budget, I do not want NG-CDF to receive part of the development funds. Let that Kshs36 billion go through the ministries.” That policy can work. But if this Fund is anchored in the Constitution of Kenya, we will be safe. As we pass many laws towards the BBI, this is one of the issues that Members should take up and demand to be included in the amendments that will come to this House, whether constitutional amendments or any other amendments. I want to thank you very much for the time and thank the more than 25 Members who have contributed to this Report. I want to assure the House that we shall move to all regions in this country and bring the reports up to date; the 2019/2020 Financial Year. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to reply."
