"content": "It is important to note that in this Budget, there is money meant for the Equalisation Fund. Once we pass these Regulations, I hope the Minister in charge of the National Treasury will see it fit and deem it right that it becomes a priority once they start disbursing the allocations of this financial year. Most of the projects that were put under the first policy were the big projects that were going to stir economic growth, open up and give service to these areas. For example, we have huge dams, roads, issues of electricity connectivity and, for the time that has been lost. We pray that the National Treasury gives the Equalisation Fund priority. I had some reservations on the matter of the committees. There is a lot of bureaucracy and with the time that has lapsed, it might even impede this process further. However, looking at it, we will let it go for now and we hope that it will help us identify the projects that will have a big impact in those areas. With those many remarks, I support."
