"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me a chance to contribute to this Motion. It is very good to hear from Mr. Nyachae. It is very heartening and reassuring about this Government, that at least you can get a Minister who can come here and say what he has said. Unfortunately, what Mr. Nyachae referred to as District Development Committees (DDCs) are archaic things which do not even have a legal framework in this country. Some of the people who chair those committees have no business being there because the manner in which they were appointed in those positions leaves a lot to be desired. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to support this Motion because we want this Government to go on operating. The effect of refusing to support this Motion is like telling them to wind up and go home. I do not think we are ready to tell them to go home tomorrow because it is necessary that they should continue operating. There is very little one can say about this Procedural Motion because when we shall be discussing the Financial Statement from the Minister for Finance, we will put him to task on various issues."
