We know that they have had problems since 2007 but they have also learnt their mistakes. The clarification I would like to seek is whether the Ministry of Devolution and Planning has consulted the administrators of the YEDF and the WEDF, so that, as a House, we do not make the mistake of endorsing the same things that have been done by the administrators of the two Funds. I know that the two Funds have taken time to grow. Another thing I would like to point out is that it is quite risky for Members of Parliament to control the loans that will be given from the Fund being established. I can foresee a situation where a group of constituents take a loan and then tell the Member of Parliament responsible for the Fund: “We voted for you,"}
