    "content": "Hon. Speaker, when most of us took over the management of constituencies in 2017, it became apparent that we had very many challenges. The Fund was rolled out in the first term and it appeared as if it was a political gift to various members of the community. The recovery rate was so poor that it was practically impossible to motivate the youth, women and PWDs. I will comment on the Uwezo Fund in Funyula Constituency. First of all, I must comment that since we took over, we have managed to give funds to more than 25 groups some being first takers, others second takers and others on their third disbursement. At the moment, we have reported a 56 per cent recovery rate, but when I took over, we had about 27 per cent. We have had to use ingenious ways to get the groups to repay the loans. However, as it has been indicated in the Report, three issues stand out very clearly. One is lack of facilitation of the committees."
