    "content": "Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Report and thank Members of the Finance, Budget and Commerce Committee for the work they have done since last week. I want to also thank all the chairpersons of the various committees that presented their recommendations to this Committee. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, when you look at the Budget Policy Paper we have six key pillars that the national Government is trying to address. The key pillar among all these is the pillar on sustained sectoral spending for employment creation. This is a pillar that deals with agricultural transformation which is now very low. We know that we have minimal resources that have been allocated to the sector and we hope as we give in our recommendations that the Ministries of Treasury and of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries will come up with a clear policy since agriculture is a devolved function. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
