"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, whereas I may not be in a position to comment about the Ministry of Agriculture or NSIS, because I do not know about their budget proposals, one thing which is clear is that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is fitted into a wrong Committee in terms of purposes of competing for resources. You will remember that one of the requests that I made when I first appeared before the Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations is that there should be repositioning of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs so that we can then compete for the resources directly. We are grouped together with Parliament, and you know the position of Parliament. When they want their budget, there is not a single cent that is deducted. We are grouped together also with the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security and whatever money is requested, that is the money which will be given. If we were to be grouped under the Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations, I am sure that we will compete favourably for the resources that are available within that docket."
