    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Allow me to take this opportunity to thank Members for the expedient consideration of this Supplementary Appropriation (No. 2) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 39 of 2024). As we said when doing the Second Reading of this Bill, this is unprecedented in the history of Parliament and, indeed, our country. This is because, it is only within the first month of the new Financial Year 2024/2025. As it is now clear, this was largely occasioned by the rejection of the Finance Bill 2024. Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is to say that for every action, there is a reaction and for every choice there is a consequence. When we acted in the manner that we did regarding the Finance Bill 2024, there had to be an action and the reaction is therefore to cut our Budget to be commensurate with the losses that we made in terms of the revenues that we were going to collect during this financial year."
