    "content": "are not forthcoming in many areas of Parliament. You go to the health club, there are no services. You claim for mileage, but there are no funds. These days we travel without allowances. If funds are being provided, where is the problem? The functioning of Parliament is not proper. These are the issues which must be addressed and sorted out in the Budget-making process. This is very important. When the Chair seeks to introduce this amendment as an afterthought, then that is very serious. It means that we are not giving this important institution of the country the priority it deserves. It means that we only remember to include this after the Budget has been read. We are expected to undertake our functions and implement our mandate with minimal disruptions. PSC has to ensure that Members’ issues are addressed. When there is no money, as we have been told in the past, there is a problem. Even supplies of important utilities have not been done on time. I wanted to bring this out and remind the Chair that he needs to respond to the clarification sought by Hon. Nicholas Gumbo."
