    "content": "Hon. Speaker, Hon. Makali Mulu served with me in the Budget and Appropriations Committee in the last regime. We tried to prevail upon the then Government to allow construction of what they called “the 10,000 classrooms” to be undertaken through NG-CDF but there was a lot of resistance. These stalled projects today can be seen all over the country. Some are under 30 per cent while others are at 60 per cent completion, and the best performing of the lot are probably at between 80 and 85 per cent completion. Most of the projects are not complete. The quality of workmanship in many of the classroom projects implemented under the Ministry of Education Infrastructure Programme is not as good as the classrooms that Members of Parliament supervise under the NG-CDF Committees. Therefore, I encourage that even for police stations, administrative offices for our regional commissioners and our county commissioners, it is better when the money goes there through the NG-CDF. I note that the Committee has made that recommendation."
