    "content": "Hon. Members, I wish to inform you that my office is in receipt of a letter dated 7th December, 2020 from the Office of the Auditor-General seeking consent to recall the Audited Report of the State Department for University Education for the year ended 30thJune 2019. In the letter, the Auditor-General requests that the Certified Audited Financial Statements in respect of the State Department for University Education in the Ministry of Education be withdrawn since the report, as submitted, contains an inadvertent error. Hon. Members, Article 229 of the Constitution requires the Auditor-General to audit and report to Parliament the financial statements of all public entities within six (6) months after the end of each financial year. The submission allows for consideration of the reports for appropriate action by Parliament. The subject Report was submitted to the National Assembly and laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 19th November 2020. It was subsequently committed to the PAC for examination in accordance with the requirements of Standing Order 205. Hon. Members, in order to ensure that only the accurate and certified report of the Auditor General is examined by the Committee, I hereby accede to the request and direct that the Audited Financial Statements for the State Department for University Education for the year ended 30thJune, 2019 be hereby withdrawn from the records of the House. Further, any publicisation undertaken by the Clerk in accordance with the requirements of Section 32 of the Public Audit Act, 2015, is also hereby withdrawn forthwith. The Committee, and indeed the House, is accordingly guided. I thank you."
