    "content": "You can accuse the Executive and the Legislature of corruption because these are people who are elected. They are politicians. Even those who run the Executive are politicians. The last place that can be accused of corruption anywhere in the world is the Judiciary. That is why today, I think that my colleagues will agree with me. Let those who can pay US $2 million pay but what about the people in the villages, who have no money and whom we represent? They must take advantage of this law to access the legal aid fund that gets grants, so that they can access affordable, sustainable and accountable justice. I am sure that Hon. Members will contribute to this Bill. The earlier we conclude it and have it forwarded to His Excellency the President for assent, the better. For those of us who represent the poorest of the poor in our country – people who cannot afford even US $2 or US $10 to bribe somebody – the solution is in this Bill. This House must deal with it very fast so that our people can access legal aid."
