    "content": "In the Financial Year 2015/2016, pending bills were Kshs1billion. This means that we had stalled projects, and the contractors who had put in their money to do Government projects were not paid. Probably, that is one of the reasons when you ask on the streets; people say that there is no money because the money that should be in circulation is lying in the National Treasury because it has not been disbursed to the various projects. They say that justice delayed is justice denied. But I dare say that service delayed is also service denied. This is part of our Constitution. The Public Services Act, 2015 states categorically that the provision of Government services needs to be prompt, effective and responsive. Therefore, when we have a stalled project and pending bills of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 years, that is in contravention of an Act of Parliament that this House passed.
