    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is, indeed, true that we had that disaster affecting the hon. Member. However, it is also true to say that with the setting up of the National Disaster Operation Centre (NDOC), we have been able to train our people to effectively respond when disasters of similar nature occur. Indeed, in the recent incidents of Nakumatt Down Town and Molo, rescuers from the NDOC arrived at the scenes within 20 minutes to co-ordinate all the agencies that are supposed to assist in the rescue operation. Those agencies include the Ministry of State for Defence, the Police Force, the Ministry of Health, the Red Cross Society, among others. So, we are trying to strengthen and fund the NDOC with a view to giving it proper capacity to be able to respond effectively."
