    "content": "Another thing is that, the percentage that is indicated in the Act does not mean that, that is the highest he can give. You can still go a little above that. So, in the next financial year, it is my request that instead of making it 2.5 per cent, he should go slightly above that. He can go to even 10 per cent! That is because 2.5 per is very low. So, he should consider that because, even in his constituency, that is the only Government fund that his constituents are happy about. That is why they elected him. I assume he had managed his CDF properly. We have locational committees that are helping us a lot. At least, in my constituency, I know they help me in identifying projects and supervising them. But they complain that they are doing free work. They do it for free while the CDF members have allowances. I think we should consider that members of the locational committees should be given a little incentive so that they can help us in supervising of some of those projects on the ground. Otherwise, it is unfair for them. Some of them are retired civil servants who can do a good job."
