Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Local Government Provident Fund is under- funded. That is in breach of the Retirement Benefits Authority.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House that the Provident Fund does not pay interest? The funds can be invested and earn interest which must be declared and appropriated or apportioned accordingly.

I think this Motion has made it abundantly clear that we have to think outside the box and that Members of this House should not be taken for granted. Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the things that this Ministry has taken very lightly is the issue of cost-reduction. It has been a very easy-going Ministry.
