    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Appropriations Bill. I want to say that it has been a long journey going through our Budget under the new constitutional dispensation. I think we have learnt our mistakes and we are going to correct them in due course. As a Member of the Budget Committee, there are a few areas that we thought would have been areas of priority and we made recommendations. I know that the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance took notes but I want to emphasize that the issue of teachers is still fundamental. I want to congratulate and thank the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance for the initiative that they have taken but we need that position summed up so that we could see teachers in classrooms before the end of third term. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we also made a recommendation that funds be made available to the Ministry of Lands because the funds made available are investment expenditures which will go into generating more revenue for this Government. Lastly, I want to say that we need to pass this Bill so that we can create economic activities which are necessary for the growth of this country to enable us generate more revenue to take care of the more ever demanding needs. With those few remarks, I support."
