    "content": "the ground as to who is responsible for this kind of mess and who was there. If we can give the work of road construction to people who are known even by the county managers in the name of local administration and the counties, and if this process was to be devolved to the counties, I am sure we are going to have better road construction than we have always had. There is a lot of bureaucracy and redtape in terms of getting the funds released from the Ministry. You go there and you are told that there are no funds, and when there are funds, you are told about it when it is already December and January, when they are about to prepare another budget for March. When you get it and you go to the office in March, you are told that they are preparing the budget for the following year. So, you find that there will be no money. But when the money is released, it is given to those engineers who will be there only for looting in order to line up their pockets. So, these are things that we need to discourage, and this Motion is moving towards that direction so that those people who will be given construction works are known to be people who know exactly what to do. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we also have some other roads which are given to somebody who is, say, a friend to a serious senior politician and in the end, we have poor road construction. I condemn that kind of cartel. With those few remarks, I support."
