    "content": "(Prof. Saitoti): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have given a historical account. It is not the creation of the Minister or this Government. This has been the historical situation. I myself, of course, come from an area where it was impossible at one time to even get a DO. Therefore, the commitment I am giving here is that we are doing as much as possible to see to it that those who have been historically marginalized will be given more opportunities to join the Provincial Administration; they can be trained, so that when it comes to promotions, there will be no a problem. This is the key thing here. I want to say that it is not only in the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security that has implemented the Constitution and said it is not possible to fill positions immediately. We have the same problem in the police, the armed forces; the only thing we have to do is make a lot of efforts to ensure that there are more people from marginalized areas who can be appointed to positions. I want to end by saying that I have been at great pains to say that these people have been redeployed. They are officers serving in the Ministry deployed just as other Ministries have done. The Ministry of Education, the Ministry of State for Public Service and other Ministries have done it. What amazes me is that none of the Members here lashing at my own Ministry ever thinks in terms of the other Ministries. We have done nothing at all except what other Ministries have done. The all act has been purely administrative. I conclude."
