Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I have been listening with interest for the last couple of days and even weeks and months that people are concerned about the community empowerment initiative. They are afraid the communities might not be ready to take on certain aspects of governing themselves. Rightfully so, Mr. Chairman. We should be concerned that people have to be properly prepared for this. From looking at the Minister's opening comments, they are contemplating training and the rest of it, but the problem could be there is not enough money in the area. Is there a possibility we could put more money into the area to ensure there is enough training in the communities, so they can do a good job?
