    "content": "I believe we were very discriminatory in actually leaving out all these people. I want to end by saying that the Cash Transfer Fund should actually be enhanced, so that we can also cover a certain age bracket. Also, the mode, or process, of identifying the beneficiaries of this particular Fund, I think, it was skewed to the extent that you find in some areas people who are benefitting are younger than others. In fact, others who are benefitting are not even within that age bracket. I think we also need to create good rules, so that when we are identifying people who are supposed to benefit from the Cash Transfer Fund and also Uwezo Fund then the right people benefit. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I also join my friends in saying that we need to create very good rules that can guide us on how we can identify these particular people, because, as we speak, certain people are seriously complaining about the fact that they are not benefitting from it. I also want to speak to the question of amalgamating some of these funds, for example YEDF, Uwezo Fund and WEDF. I believe we need to amalgamate them and have them in one basket, so that the whole group is identified in a very orderly way. That way, we will not have a situation where certain groups benefit twice, say from WEDF and also YEDF, while there are some other people who do not benefit. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I wish to support and say clearly that this is the time when we need to consider the other people who are not within this bracket. I thank you."
