    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I just wanted to make a request. I had submitted a few amendments regarding the NG-CDF Act on the appointment of the CDFC members. The current members’ term is coming to an end on 8th of December. You remember in the last Parliament, we really struggled to have them gazette. It took us almost five months. We are going to a period where we need money to pay for fees through the NG-CDF. I took the amendments to the Legal Department more than five months ago so that we could have addressed that transition period between the expiry of the term of the current CDFC members and others who are coming in. On the 8th, their term is coming to an end. So, it means by law, the CDF Act says their term will come to an end and then the Fund Account Manager will take charge. But he cannot make any decision regarding NG-CDF until another committee has been properly and legally constituted so that it can undertake its functions. That is the position, Hon. Duale."
