    "content": "with a population of under 50,000 people and yet mine has a population of 200,000 people, I feel that something should be done. When we create such funds, they should be distributed equitably. Fairness in distribution of the funds should be seen. As we congratulate the Senate for coming up with this Bill, we want to urge them to be more proactive when it comes to dealing with Bills that come from this House. I am particularly interested in a Bill on irrigation that was passed in this House some months ago. That Bill is still sitting in the Senate and we have not heard about it. We hope that the Senate will be more proactive. I hope that out of this Bill, we will start seeing more cities and towns springing up. We also hope that the Department of Housing and Urban Development will be strengthened or given capacity to ensure that cities and towns are well planned. We do not want the kind of unplanned development we are currently witnessing. I support the Bill."
