    "content": " Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me appreciate the Chair of the Committee for that splendid Report. Of course, I just want to persuade him, plus the leadership, that balancing 2020/2021 is critical. Those projects were already identified and committed for. Quite a number of schools or institutions that were supposed to get those projects are already asking and it is becoming a problem. The sooner the Supplementary Budget comes the better, so that the money can come in. We need to get it out of our way. For some of us who are also 100 per cent sure of coming back even if there have been the 2021/2022 delays, we have no problem. We can complete the projects in the next calendar year. But it is important for the previous year. Quite a number of projects have already been committed. We have already made commitments and promises to schools. It will look like we did not intend to keep our promises. The only thing it can do, if we are going to get 80 per cent of the votes, is to reduce it to the standard 54 per cent of vifaranga vya kompyuta. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
