    "content": "The truth of the matter is that the National Treasury without a constitutional or statutory basis went ahead and adjusted a budget which had been passed by this House without coming back to us to look at it, persuade us or rationalise it. They went ahead and decided, like a demented tailor, to cut the budget by this much for Parliament, Judiciary and independent commissions. Therefore, there is no rationality even in these budget cuts. The reason the Constitution says it must come back is because we are the ones to rationalise it. It is not that the Judiciary cannot have cuts, but this must be brought back to us. So, I think this is a matter which we must speak to very strongly and ensure it ends now and for all."
