    "content": "Hon. Speaker, as you look at this matter, I want you to look at the issue when we were doing this Report. We should not set precedence for other members who will be called to give evidence because they are given time to appear. I can tell you one problem we are facing at the PAC. We are calling accounting officers and they are not coming. We have been postponing meetings and at the end of the day, we will be late in giving our Report. This is the case and yet we have a mandate to do this Report. The CJ was accorded time to appear before the PAC and he did not come. He did not even make a submission or a memorandum. I wish he could have done a memorandum. He would have an excuse that he did a memorandum and that is why he did not appear before the PAC. He did not do a memorandum to the PAC and the Chair at that time, Hon. Ababu Namwamba struggled and made several calls to him to come but he said he would not come. You can rule that we halt this debate if we ignore Article 125 of the Constitution of the Republic of Kenya. Guide us but as far as I am concerned, the Report has been tabled. After we are done with it, there is the Committee on Implementation. Let us go through this Report and then the Committee on Implementation will take over it. All the Reports debated in the National Assembly are taken over by other committees. So, if there is an error which has been made in this Report, it will be corrected by the Committee on Implementation."
