    "content": "It only happens three days in a week. Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No. 56(1)(b) to make a Statement relating to the activities of the Senate County Public Accounts Committee. Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, during the period under review, commencing 25th October, 2022 to 30th March 2023, the Committee held a total of 30 meetings. The Committee has interrogated and prepared 13 reports awaiting adoption by the Committee before tabling in the Senate. The following are the county entities whose reports are awaiting adoption by the Committee- (a) Nyeri County Executive; (b) Nandi County Executive; (c) Bomet County Executive; (d) Tharaka Nithi County Executive; (e) Vihiga County Executive; (f) Homa Bay County Executive; (g) Nyamira County Executive; (h) Tana River County Executive; (i) Kiambu County Assembly; (j) Kitui County Assembly; (k) Isiolo County Assembly; (l) West Pokot County Assembly; and, (m) Narok County Assembly. Mr. Speaker Sir, out of the interrogations of the above county entities, a number of issues of concern arose. Most of the 13 county entities had challenges with the submission of documents to the auditors as stipulated in the Public Audit Act, 2015. The Committee noted that most county executives and assemblies did not avail relevant supporting documents to the Auditor-General during the audit exercise."
