    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to add my voice in supporting the Vote for the Ministry of State for Special Programmes. I would also like to echo what the hon. ole Metito has mentioned in terms of the need for having better co- ordination of the Ministries in the districts. Given that District Commissioners are jacks of all trades and masters of none, the questions directed to this Ministry tend to be problems of food distribution. Sometimes, the DCs do not take relief distribution as a priority. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to congratulate the Ministry for the good work they have done in resettling IDPs. However, I wish to note that by giving them cash, we did not assist them much. International experience has shown that displaced people need to be given durable solutions to their problems. Giving cash does not give them permanent solution that is durable and more sustainable. It is more ad hoc and tends to create more mobile IDPs than settling them once and for all."
