    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. I take this chance to thank the Chairman of the Committee for the good work they have done on this Report. The Report is good but it has some question marks. We all know that borrowing is not bad because we all borrow. Even Members of Parliament borrow. For a country, borrowing is not a big problem. The problem comes when we borrow the money and instead of prioritising what we are going to do with the money, we undertake projects which are not priority to the country. As we speak, there are necessities for this country. For instance, food security is key to our country. The economies of West African countries are not that strong but because of food security, they can undertake their daily activities smoothly. We are currently in the rainy season but some parts of the country have water problems, especially where I come from in the Lower Eastern Region. T The Thwake Dam Project was started in 2016/2017. I wish we could prioritise completion of that dam. As we speak, there is a lot of water going to the Indian Ocean.
