    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I appreciate this time. Many things have been said about this Report. I want to add my voice as I support it. This is the highest law-making House. When we pass an Act, we should not be begging anybody to follow it. The recommendation of this Committee asks the Cabinet Secretary to comply with the resolution that is made in the Act especially Section 24(1)(a) of the Political Parties Act, 2011. Just like the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG- CDF), we do not need to beg anybody. It is not only what pertains to the Members of Parliament that should be implemented, but all that which is in the Act must be followed. Let me also add that the functional structure of every party is what is making the quality of the House. What do I mean by this? The vetting procedures are done with the capacities of political parties. If they are well funded, then you will have quality Members coming to the House and that will improve deliberations of the House.
