    "content": "Secondly, is the question of continuous development of our Constitution. We have to develop a relationship between the Legislature and the Judiciary. The more we tear at each other, the more both institutions lose public confidence. Kenyans have no confidence today in the Executive, the Legislature and the Judiciary. This House has to create a situation in which the relationship between the Judiciary and the Legislature is well factored in our rules whether it is through a law, a Bill, a practice, an administrative measure or a Standing Order. It is possible for every committee to invite the CJ to come and answer questions. It is also possible for us, as a Parliament, to abuse the powers and privileges that come with the leadership of the institutions that we have. Once the PAC is done with the situation, the Procedures and House Rules Committee needs to look at how the CJ and the head of an institution comes to account before Parliament, given the powers and privileges that go with his office."
