    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Budget Report and recommendations and laud the Budget and Appropriations Committee for cutting money from wasteful spending departments like the NYS. They should have reallocated those funds to the needs of the teachers that Hon. Sossion is talking about. Even as the Government insists on a 100 per cent pupil transition from primary school to secondary school, it has put more effort on infrastructural development and left the issue of teachers behind. In this country, especially in the constituencies we come from, we have day secondary schools with a total number of over 300 students still having two teachers from the TSC. They are expected to compete with students from well-established institutions in this Republic. Therefore, I support that we still have a leeway in this Budget to channel more resources towards employing more teachers. I want to commend the recommendations of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, especially on the subsidised fertilisers. For a long time, coffee farmers have been left behind in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
