Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, that is also my wish. Since this House will have power to dictate the budgetary allocation, I pray that whoever will be in that Committee will look at the Ministry of Roads as one of the most important in this Government.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the information we have from the Ministry of Finance is that it will have a positive effect on the development of the infrastructure in this country. We are also studying the same, but I think they were right.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have been very explicit and I do not intend to call the hon. Member a joker, he has never been one. I believe that the meeting he had with the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Finance was serious. I wish he could avail the minutes of the same, so that I can look at them and communicate with the Permanent Secretary at an advantaged position. However, thank you for having done a good job. I will follow it up.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I take great cognisance of the fact that, that is a high potential agricultural area. That is the reason why I instructed the District Roads Engineer, who I believe will consult the hon. Member, to fix the date for the prioritisation meeting as soon as even tomorrow.
