    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to seek your direction pertaining to a serious matter that is affecting our constituencies. As you are aware, the law pertaining to the management of Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) was changed. As I speak now, no operations are taking place at the constituencies because we do not have a committee in place. We are aware that the regulations are under the Attorney-General (AG) and they have overstayed. I am using Article 125 of the Constitution where you can summon anybody anywhere, to seek your direction in terms of getting these regulations so that the operations of CDF can continue. Many children have been sent away from school, construction of roads has stalled and these Hon. Members are miserable. So, we seek your direction on the way forward pertaining to the gazettement of regulations that have overstayed at the Office of the AG. Thank you. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
