    "content": "Another issue concerns the development budget. The more we continue reducing the development budget in our Supplementary Budgets, the less we will help the economy grow. The total amount reduced in the development budget is a huge figure. Even if it is the issue of absorption rates, it is important that we use development budgets to grow this economy. My last point is what the Deputy Speaker mentioned, which is very important. It is important for us, as a country, to tie the reports of the Public Accounts Committee with the reports of the Budget and Appropriations Committee so that those MDAs that have been highlighted by the Public Accounts Committee for not spending public resources well should not get more resources when we are budgeting. That has been a gap. We need to sort it by the Public Accounts Committee sitting down with the Budget Appropriations Committee when it comes to the Estimates so that we harmonise those two reports and only allocate resources to areas where we are getting value for money. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
