    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to confirm to the hon. Member that there is no money being misappropriated in the headquarters. During the heavy rains of March and April, many roads and bridges countrywide were washed away. We received letters from all DWOs where heavy rains occurred but we did not have emergency funds to do the work. We asked the DWOs to prioritise the same roads and bridges in the current financial year, using the Petroleum Maintenance Fund, for the roads which fall under the DRCs. That was what happened because we could not cope with the situation. We also did not help by providing the emergency funds to do the work. The cases the hon. Member is complaining about cannot be catered for under the Emergency Fund. They have been catered for under the 16 per cent and the 24 per cent fuel levy allocated to District Roads Committees."
