    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to conclude a bit on the issue of public debt which the Committee has touched on. I find it to be a great idea. They have commented on that as a category of concerns. Their recommendation was tamed. Looking at the public debt as a whole from the perspective of just one financial year may have led the Committee to feel okay. They had only a slice of view. They decided not to be too bold in broad recommendations. The issue of how fast the public debt is rising is a major concern. We are waiting for the next financial year to get exactly the same reactions. There must be a way in which Parliament expresses its disgust and disappointment at how this is happening. How do we do that? We have looked carefully and pinned down institutions that are responsible for debt acquisition. I know it is higher matter than the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury, but he will be at the centre of the efforts by the presidency. It is part of the public policy that the President puts in place. That is manifested through these institutions that we look at here. We need to have brought out this more strongly and make the recommendation a bit sharper than this."
