    "content": "Thank you Hon. Speaker. In moving this Motion I was expecting the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party to address the false media reports on the court case. However, Hon. Lessonet has done well to explain to the House. If you were listening to radio stations and reading newspapers, the reports on that court case were based on misconceptions and ignorance. I think reporters and media staff who deal with court cases should have some element of law so that they understand. The Hon. Leader of the Majority Party should tell the country that NG- CDF is here to stay unlike what the media reported. It is important to understand that the CDF Act 2013 was repealed. It does not exist anymore. What we have is the NG-CDF Act. In view of the court ruling, all that the House needs to do is very simple; Amend the law to align it with the court ruling and the NG-CDF continues. So, the country needs to understand that NG-CDF is here to stay and the role of the MP whether Senators and Governors like it or not will remain in that Act. Thank you."
