    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me also commend the departmental committees that have been working on the reforms that are necessary in our budgetary process. One point that may not be good if it becomes the practice is cuts across the board. When you say a 50 per cent cut across the board or a 20 per cent cut across the board, it never quite works with finances but given that this is our second year through this interactive budget making process, that was the quickest way that the departmental committees would handle and convey their wishes in reducing excess expenditure perceived to be going on within the different Ministries. We expect, however, that in future, it will be possible to pinpoint specific reductions that are achievable and which the Minister could be able to handle."
