"content": "I think I have addressed what was raised by hon. Mungatana; what will be in place when we go for elections. If we are only preoccupied at this moment with electioneering, we will forget the most important aspect of our duties; to set up structures for incoming Government. Immediately, after the next elections, things will change completely. We will have a Governor coming into an empty office. There is not even a clerk. There is not even a sweeper. We will start from the scratch. Our view is that we should begin to develop this capacity now so that when the incoming system comes there will be something to start with. There can be a skeleton staff employed on contract, which can then be confirmed by the incoming Government. So, I agree with what hon. Mungatana is saying. That is why I brought this subject today to be discussed. I wanted hon. Members to be alive to the challenges that are coming in front so that we begin to work towards setting up structures and putting them in place."
