    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity to say one or two things about the Appropriation Bill. As we speak, I am sure you are aware that we have already passed the Vote on Account and that the importance of the Appropriation Bill to the country and even to the House cannot be gainsaid. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as we debate the Appropriation Bill, it is important that we look at some of the issues that are happening in the Government. The Minister for Finance first read the Budget here in June. He did create what we call the National Youth Enterprise Fund. It is just last week that the Permanent Secretary in the relevant Ministry was quoted in all media houses admitting that there is no legislative or legal framework to govern the operations of that fund yet. We passed the 3882 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES November 22, 2006 Vote on Account on 22nd June this year. So, one then starts to wonder whether the Government was serious about the National Youth Enterprise Fund or was it the usual politics? I am saying this because this Government is full of people who get very excited about using huge phrases like \"we are going to sweep every corner or village of the country with this or the other\"."
