    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. We are all aware that we are going through a serious credit crunch as a country. This is partly due to the fact that we have surpassed our debt ceiling. Hence, we cannot borrow competitively. I welcome the introduction of genuine and serious taxation measures that can help the Government to perform its obligations. However, we must cap wastage and use those scarce resources prudently. As we allocate more funds to counties, we must also introduce anti- corruption measures and serious austerity efforts to curb wastage. As a country, we are known for misusing public funds. Therefore, we need to use those little resources where they are most needed. We do not want a situation where we give more funds to counties and they fail to be accountable."
