    "content": "I want to agree with a few contributions that have made by my colleagues. But, first, I want to say that it is my view that the Ministry is creating new districts so that services can be brought to the people. Why have they refused to issue guidelines for the headquarters? Why is this responsibility being referred to the people themselves, many of whom never even asked for the districts? Why is it becoming a problem for politicians? We thank the Ministry for bringing services closer to the people but they must take the responsibility of issuing guidelines so that the country can be at peace. It is a simple matter and I think this Minister is equal to that task. I know his Permanent Secretary is also equal to that task. They should take the services to a central place. In some places, they are arguing like in my constituency, in one part of the constituency there is infrastructure. I think the DCs are supposed to be followed by services. They are not meant for buildings. These things are the people and not buildings. He needs to help us, as hon. Members, so that we can use our time talking about other things and not wasting time doing things the Government can do for us."
