    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have been very much in touch with the Members of Parliament whose areas are badly affected, especially the Member of Parliament for Budalangi. We are trying to see the best way that these funds can be used to expeditiously assist the people. The first phase is construction of the dykes. There is also a phase during which we are supposed to construct dams and for the people to be sensitised to move to higher grounds. However, on that one, we need to work together with Members of Parliament in the affected areas, so that we can sensitize the people on the importance of moving to higher grounds. We will talk to them, because is not easy for people to just move away from where they have been living. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am also very happy because the Member of Parliament for Budalangi has actually been able to even raise funds to help the affected people. So, we will work together to make sure that the affected people are comfortable, so that every time they see rain, they do not get scared, but rather feel comfortable, because they will be on a higher ground. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
