    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity to close this debate. The question is, why do we appropriate? Of course, we realise that if we do not, then we will be outside the law. Besides that, we need to appropriate so that there is continuity of states and so that we do the right thing. I thank the Committee for doing a good job. It has tried to stick within the limits this year. It has cautioned the different sectors and departmental committees to remain within the limits so that we do not overstretch the budget deficit. As we appropriate this money, we need to ask ourselves to what extent the money given out is used for the purpose it is given. A clear case study should be conducted to analyse the extent to which the money released has actually achieved the intended results, met the set targets, and reached the desired milestones. We need to prudently use resources and obtain value for money. We need to check on the wastage in this country. Besides sustaining the existing systems, we need to rationalise these budgets. We need to identify how we can create jobs, and which sectors we need to give prominence to so as to industrialise this country and create more jobs for our young people. We can then increase our exports. With those few remarks, I support the Bill."
