    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we applaud the Minister for bringing forth this Supplementary Appropriation Bill. It has been very hard, though, for Members of Parliament to understand the term \"Miscellaneous and others\" which has featured in the Bill. I would like to appeal to the Minister for Finance to, at least, adhere to the principle of language understanding. We Members of Parliament are reluctant to be used as rubber stamp when it comes to public finance spending. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to see this money being put to right use. We all know that appropriation is the opposite of misappropriation. We do not vote this money for misappropriation. There was an element of money that was misappropriated or not accounted for. There were trips that were not accounted for. We, as hon. Members, would not like to imagine that we are used here as a rubber stamp. With those remarks, I beg to support this Supplementary Appropriation Bill."
