    "content": "In other words, the Auditor-General does not just carry out the audit as a matter of formality but such audits are supposed to confirm whether or not public funds have been applied lawfully and in an effective manner. Parliament, under Article 229(8) of the Constitution, is required within three months after receiving an audit report, to debate, consider the report and take appropriate action. That means, therefore, that once the reports land here, we are expected to take not more than three months to act on them. As we speak, the PAC is more than halfway through examining the reports for 2017/2018. Again, as we speak, we expect the tabling of the reports for 2018/2019. Therefore, that means that if the PAC does not continue to work in the manner it is supposed to work, we may end up having a build up of unexamined reports."
