    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the proposals by the hon. Minister appear very nice on the face, but the practicality of this business--- This is the Constituency Development Fund Committee (CDFC). We are not talking about the Board. We are talking about a CDFC at the constituency level. We are not talking about a technical committee to evaluate projects. That is the job of the line Ministries. We are talking about persons, who have a commitment to ensure that that constituency is developed. In some of our constituencies, literate people are numbered. You can count them. I have my own experience in this business. If you go to a place where you have lawyers, then pick lawyers. If you go to where you have fishermen, then pick the fishmongers. But this House in particular has no moral authority to put any educational requirement on anybody, when it has just allowed “ngumbarus” to qualify for elections."
