Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Although I support the proposed amendment, I would like to ask the Committee and especially the Members of the Committee that come from the constituency to be on the lookout. My experience with the social assistance fund or the cash transfers is that some officers who work for the Government but are not representatives of the people do not care about what happens. They are not interested as to whether or not the money will assist the targeted groups. So, it is important that the Committee and the patrons make sure that, that money ...

Hon. Speaker, I also rise to support this particular Motion. I wish to state that this House has very many Members these days, and it is important that we share the little time that we have among ourselves. I also urge my colleagues that it is not a must that one must exhaust the actual time that has been allocated. Just go to the point, so that we can give every person in this House a chance to contribute to the debate in this nation. I support.

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I wish to rise and support this particular Motion. I want to begin by wishing my colleagues in this House a happy new year. I support this Motion because this team that we are returning to office did a good job last year. But I will be requesting them to look at the priorities of this House. This country is facing very many challenges and, as politicians, we are on oath to make some painful decisions.

Hon. Speaker, the economy is almost grinding to a halt. We have challenges such as an impossible wage bill. We have challenges in terms of insecurity in this country. We have many challenges. It is going to be upon this House to come up with Motions, resolutions, Bills, acts and statutes that are going to help this country.

I also wish to remind this team that we are putting into office once again that we have some Constitutional Bills that need to be brought to this House. It is not good for us to be dealing with them during the eleventh hour. Every time we have to rush because time is almost over and, sometimes, even have to extend sitting hours. We now have time before August. Can we enact those laws early enough?
