    "content": "The law is being amended, but what we noted is that part of these laws that were passed are in contravention of the Public Procurement Act which states very clearly that, notwithstanding any other provision of the law and this includes this one here. If they are providing for something else, we as Parliament have said notwithstanding any other legislation. So, the amendments that we were seeking at that time were to provide for notwithstanding any other written laws but, of course you know some of these Members thought that we were pedantic in the manner in which we were proposing those things. Now, the consequences are with us, but we have asked the IEBC not to act as a court of law."
