    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to take this opportunity to thank hon. Members for the very constructive contributions they have made with regard to this Bill. This Bill was about appropriation of the funds which were already approved by this Parliament. Parliament already approved the funds that we are asking to be withdrawn from the Consolidated Fund. Some hon. Members have raised concern about the appropriate utilisation of funds. This is a very valid concern about which, as a Ministry, we are also concerned. We are going to follow up, as the co-ordinating Ministry, to ensure that the funds which are allocated to the Ministries are put to their proper use. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you have realised from the presentation which you made, the Budget is mainly to support the people affected by post-election violence and also support activities in the newly created Ministries. With the approval of this Supplementary Appropriation Bill, we are sure that the Grand Coalition is going to start moving and that the Ministries which are created and are now getting the funds will now start delivering the services to the people. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to move."
