    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, secondly, when a lot of money is devolved to the constituencies, and already a lot of money has reached the constituencies--- We are told that this and that amount is meant for infrastructure development and the rest is for various projects. I think the next phase is to make the constituency a focal point of Budget preparation. This is because it is the constituency that will know where the problem is. People at the constituency level know what they need. I hope that the second phase of this devolution will be to ensure that Budget preparation involves the constituencies. We know what we need in our constituencies and so we can make those proposals. We could even change the name from “CDF Committee to CDF Authority”. That way, we will have full manpower to run the constituencies and prepare budgets. If this is done, we will be in a position to run our constituencies in a very professional manner. With those few remarks, I beg to support the Motion."
