    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Chair of PAC said I should speak because he is a student; he wants to go to class. That is why I had to come back. I rise to support the Report of the PAC on the report of the Auditor-General on the financial statements of IEBC. At the outset, I want to thank the Committee for doing a good job. More so, I thank the Speaker for making sure that the House does not violate the Constitution. Article 251 of the Constitution is very clear. The PAC is one of the most respectable committees in any parliamentary jurisdiction, be it parliamentary system or presidential system. What is the function of PAC? The Committee has a single broad fundamental function. If you allow me, I will read out Standing Order No. 205(2), which states: “(2) The Public Accounts Committee shall be responsible for the examination of the accounts showing the appropriations of the sum voted by the House to meet the public expenditure and of such other accounts laid before the House as the Committee may think fit.”"
