    "content": "I was saying that this Committee did a good job and they invited me when they were discussing this Report. Therefore, I only have one issue. The reason why I asked for this Statement is that during the Budget making process, there was a lot of pressure from parastatals and Ministries to build headquarters. Therefore, there is need to have policy, and I am happy that in this report, the Government has undertaken to come up with a policy on Government housing to guide acquisition of accommodation and office space. On this matter, I want a clarification that during the policy making, they will come up with a policy on maintenance of Government buildings. We know the reason why most Ministries and parastatals are going for private accommodation in various buildings owned by private developers is because of the status of Government buildings. They are in a sorry state; so, there is need to have a policy on maintenance. I want to get a clarification that when preparing the policy, they will include in it maintenance of Government buildings. Otherwise, I am happy with the report and the action the Ministry is taking to come up with a policy."
