"content": "Something pains me when I hear hon. Members say that we need to strengthen the structures of CDF. I really do not know what they mean. The structures are there and if you are flouting them then you have decided to do so but as far as I am concerned, and I am fairly a good Accountant in this country. I know that the structures are in place. We have the Locational Development Committees which are supposed to come up with priority projects. The role of the CDF Committee is just to harmonize. After all, the person with the authority to incur expenditure (AIE) is not even the hon. Member. He is the District Development Officer (DDO). We have the district accountant who is a compulsory signatory. If these people cannot bring checks and balances, even if you bring someone else, that person will still not bring the checks and balances. So, the Constituencies Development Committee (CDF) has enough checks and balances unless the officers want to collude."
