    "content": "construction of courts and we send all the money to the Ministry of Public works so that it can implement the construction of courts across this country. When I was the Chairperson of JLAC, we budgeted a lot of money to the Judicial Service Commission, just like Parliamentary Service Commission. They were building courts. For instance, a High Court in Turkana was constructed at a cost of Ksh999 million. They constructed one in Bomet for Ksh888 million. Is that not the money coming from taxpayers? If we are talking about implementation of Executive function, that is being done by the Judiciary. In fact, in the NG-CDF, we do not fall anywhere. I do not sit as member of the committee and I do not sign anywhere. We play our oversight role in accordance with Article 95 of the Constitution. We wait until the reports from the Auditor-General are brought here, which we then look at how the money has been spent at the constituency level. I do not know how they spend the money. I am also a stranger. When somebody issues a ruling that impeaches on the conduct and integrity of the Members of Parliament as if we are spenders of money…We do not spend any money. I second."
