    "content": "Finally, I am happy the Chairman and the Vice-Chair of the Public Accounts Committee are in the House. Our Order No.13 is talking about adoption of the Report of the PAC. The issue of concern to me is that we are adopting Volume I and Volume II of 2013/2014 yet we are now in 2016/2017. We are approaching the sunset of this Parliament. We are concluding the last year of our term. I am not laying blame on anybody, but just making an observation that the oversight Committees of this House must do our work properly. We have the Public Investments Committee which investigates expenditure by parastatals. Reports have been tabled, but not much has been done in implementation. A time has come for us, as Parliament, to ensure that we do not legislate in vain and whatever we legislate is acted on. By so doing, we shall fight corruption."
