    "content": "I also want to support the issue of the NG-CDF where in my constituency, most of the students and all the development that has taken place are as a result of it. As of today, if the NG-CDF was to be removed, we will not be in position to meet all the needs and support children from poor families. So, I support this Motion to entrench the NG-CDF in the Constitution to enhance development. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I oppose the issue of cabinet secretaries coming to the Floor of Parliament to answer Questions for two reasons. If we give the cabinet secretaries permission to come and answer Questions, what will be the role of committees? Committees’ responsibility allows the cabinet secretaries to answer the Questions. If they are allowed to come to the Floor of the House, then the committees that have been given the responsibilities will not have the power and hence we will be weakening them. So, I do not support this particular Motion."
