    "content": "Ainabkoi, UDA): Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I would like to thank the Chairperson of the Select Committee on the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF). This is a well-done job. It will resolve some of the problems we usually encounter in court. Members may not be aware of what the presiding Temporary Speaker did. I wish you were in court on that day. This Fund would have been done away with had it not been for the Temporary Speaker. This will now be the NG-CDF Act 2023. The NG-CDF Act 2015 is currently being contested in court. Even if they annul it, it will be null and void. We have already replaced it. They will be wasting their time. So, I thank the Members and the Members of the Select Committee on the NG-CDF and the Members of the ad hoc Committee that we co-Chaired with Hon. Otiende Amollo who worked on these amendments. This Committee worked very hard to come up with these proposals that align the Bill with the Constitution. It was as a result of the current Temporary Speaker on the Chair. He was very useful in terms of proposing the amendments that we have made. If Members can remember, this Committee was appointed by the House to make proposals for the amendment of the NG-CDF Act, which we forwarded to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
