    "content": "I also want to talk about certain or specific allocations or amounts that have been appropriated through the Appropriation Bill. You will realize that we even added the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) in the Supplementary Budget but in actual sense, it was not adding anything to that Fund. What we have done is just trying to correct what the Ministry has failed to do. The Ministry is required by law, and through the CDF Act, that any amount budgeted in a year must be transferred to the CDF Fund Account. At the end of the year, you will realize that the Ministry or the Treasury has failed to transfer that fund to the CDF Fund Account. Therefore, they call it a budget which has lapsed and yet it cannot lapse because the law protects the CDF Fund."
