Hon. Members have diligently ensured that NG-CDF money is used properly. I want to ask the President to ensure that Members of Parliament are empowered in terms of NG-CDF. This is one of the national Government functions which are felt by the ordinary mwananchi on the ground. The amounts promised have reached the various NG-CDF offices and members of the public appreciate. I would like to ask my colleague, the Chairperson of NG-CDF to ensure that we get the remaining amounts."}
