¶ 01 Sir, I rise to a point of Order. I listened to the Hon. Member. Unfortunately, funds allocated to the Northern and Eastern Provinces have not been utilized and were returned by responsible officers. That is why the Ministry of Health is blamed that money has not been allocated. Hon. Minister, please take action, and also review how much was allocated over past years and how much went unutilized.
