In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Confirm whether Kisumu County Government has carried out forensic audit of all the projects carried out by contractors and suppliers and the status of pending Bills, which bills threaten to stall service provision to the people of Kisumu County. (2) State whether there exists any plan for prioritisation of the pending bills informing the Senate of the budgetary allocations that have been put aside towards settling the pending bills, and confirm whether or not the allocations are sufficient. (3) Explain the criteria being used by the County Government to prioritize and pay the pending bills, outlining how many bills have been paid so far and what is outstanding. (4) State whether any plans have been developed to deal with the issue of pending bills, as a matter of priority for all County Governments. Thank you."
