    "content": "During these discussions with various departmental committees, some pertinent concerns and observations arose, notably, the issue of pending bills. This is a major concern that cuts across all MDAs and has led to increased project costs. Other major concerns include delayed project implementation, lack of necessary structures and enabling legislation to operationalise some funds. Duplication of some projects by different Government agencies, the reorganisation of Government and need for clarity on key deliverables of each MDA as well as the need to set up an emergency fund to repair all damaged roads and bridges across the country that have been destroyed by the recent floods. Upon the advice of the departmental committees, these MDAs could not give proper justifications for some of their allocations and their allocations were subjected to some deductions and the funds have been reallocated towards the areas deemed to be of critical nature that are inadequately funded. A summary of all departmental submissions is included in Annex 1 of our Report."
