    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for that direction. I want to start by saying that I am a Member of the CDF Committee in this House; specifically, I am its Vice-Chairman. I want to start by saying that I also oppose this Motion. As I oppose this Motion, I just want to take this opportunity to inform the hon. Members that as a CDF Committee, our role is only to implement the CDF Act. The CDF Act states that the allocation to each constituency shall be based on the latest poverty indexes. As of now, the latest poverty indexes are the ones for 2005/06. I equally want to apologise to hon. Members for the fact that in the last financial year, for one reason or another, we did not use these latest poverty indexes. For those hon. Members who seem to have lost this year--- We want to say that we will not surcharge hon. Mmbers for the extra money they got last year."
