    "content": "I have said here before - and I want to repeat it - that I do not think the framers of this Constitution, which is highly dynamic, intended a situation where the Controller and Auditor-General and this Parliament could sit on revenue accounts of the nation. As we speak, the law obviously states that the 15 per cent will be the percentage of revenues as per the last audited revenue accounts. That is a fact. We are aware that in this particular case, we are talking about the revenue account of 2009/2010 Financial Year. When you say and you want to be happy about it that in this financial year, we have allocated 43 per cent of the revenue of the last audited revenue accounts, it looks nice but, in reality, that is not the case. The fact of the matter is that, if you look at the last audited revenue accounts approved by Parliament - that is the 2013/2014 Financial Year - that percentage comes down drastically to perhaps 13 or 14 per cent."
