    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I would like to support this Report. This is a very important well researched Report. It is really bad if KRA is not supported with what they need so that they help the country. What the Committee found out is that KRA cannot perform to get money to pay the debts and what we borrow from outside because it is not well funded. If all the borders can be manned, this country can support its budget. The Committee researched and found out that and Members have said that it has been like that. It then means that we lack implementation as the former Committee found out. There are many goods that are brought through border points freely especially in the Northern parts. Some are good while some are bad. KRA is like an eye to us. If KRA is not supported, we will not cure the problem in the country. It is very bad if what we depend on to support the economy and the budget of the country is in a very bad shape as indicated by the Committee. This House should support the KRA. If they lack staff, how do we think are we going to fund the Budget? That is very bad. If we depend on it to support us but we do not support it, it is very bad. We can only support the Budget if we enable this body to function well."
