"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we are aware, there are various challenges that hit the country last year that have badly affected our economy. All the measures outlined will go a long way in ensuring that, that is done. In the Ministry of Roads, there are various changes that were proposed. One of them was the devolution of funds to ensure that previously, as we had done, where the Ministry of Roads sent the money directly to the District Roads Committee, we would like the devolution to be started and the money to be sent directly to the constituency so that hon. Members can have a say in the way roads are actually repaired and to ensure that the money is utilized properly. We will be introducing an amendment to this Finance Bill to ensure that, that is implemented and that the funds are available to hon. Members as soon as possible."
