    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, you can see the role of state-owned enterprises which do not have a ‘sunset clause,’ so that they can only operate for 10 or 20 years before they dissolve. This is unless Parliament feels that they need to continue, then they come to report progress of what value for money or what change they have done in society. We have about 575 state-owned enterprises and semi-autonomous government agencies that continue to inflate our bills and siphon out money. Recently the state-owned enterprises were classified into categories A, B and C. They now have over compensated salaries for their staffers doing an equivalent amount of work in comparison with the mainstream civil servants. That is why we have so many white elephant projects that had not been completed."
