    "content": "willing to inject money to finish projects or pay pending bills. Those are the things that we need to look at as Committees and you ordered us to do monitoring and evaluation. When we do monitoring and evaluation, we go to see some of these stalled projects and we say that when we come to the budgeting process, we will amend the Budget to ensure that such projects are funded. But in this new framework, we cannot change anything. So, what we will continue with are the new projects that the Executive is excited about. Whereas we can criticise what others have done, the National Treasury brought proposed regulations and it was our business to say no to the limitation that is unconstitutional. Now that we know it is a problem, I urge the Minority Party Whip, who is in the House, and I will talk to the Whip on our side, to act, so that we can rectify these mistakes. Those of us on the Majority Party side, you are not doing the Government a favour. You are just letting loopholes for pilferage of public funds to continue. The other issue I would want to note is that the BPS making process is not following the PFM Act. We need to see the money assigned to specific projects."
