    "content": "be undertaken by the Auditor-General only upon request by Parliament, and more so this House, it is worth noting that Article 229 (5) of the Constitution places a constitutional and legal obligation on the Auditor-General to conduct an audit on the accounts of any entity that is funded from the public funds. In this regard, to the extent that the BBI Steering Committee and Taskforce, the BBI Secretariat and the Principal Secretaries applied and diverted public funds into the unconstitutional BBI process, the Auditor-General has a constitutional obligation under Article 229 (5) of the Constitution, as an independent office, to undertake an audit of the accounts of the BBI Steering Committee and Taskforce, the BBI Secretariat and the Principal Secretaries for possible misuse and wastage of public funds. Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is on account of these grave concerns that I seek for a Statement from the Chairperson of the PAC on the following: (i) What was the exact amounts of public funds that were allocated and utilised by the BBI Steering Committee and Taskforce, the BBI Secretariat and Principal Secretaries in the unconstitutional BBI process?"
