    "content": "On the issue of the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) staff, I want to state that they were brought on board in 2020, around the COVID-19 time. They were given a very funny engagement, namely, half salary, no gratuity, no allowances, no promotions, and no career progression. They have been earning half salary and have been working in that arrangement for four years. They have been patient for so long and it is time we gave them the dignity that goes together with their qualifications. These are people who are working in a very critical sector, health. So, they need to be motivated. I will be very happy when this House appropriates funds to consider these people. I want to thank the Budget and Appropriations Committee for factoring this in the Budget."
