    "content": " Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I can confirm to the Hon. Senator that we are in constant touch with the Office of the Auditor-General. We have information, latest being this morning, that this audit is right at the tail end. We expect that this audit should be concluded in no more than a month. We will be liaising. I must also admit to the House that the Office of the Auditor-General is an independent constitutional office that cannot be directed on timelines. However, we have impressed upon them. If you look at my letter which I have attached, we requested for expedition to conclude it in good time. We hope it will be done in good time. As soon as it is concluded, we will be swinging into action immediately. I confirm to the hon. Senator, that we have every plan and intention to complete all the stalled stadia. Indeed, when you look at the sports infrastructure masterplan that I have referenced, it sets three targets as follows- (1) To return Kenya to international competitiveness by rejigging and improving our international facilities. (2) To have quality regional stadia, starting with the stalled ones. (3) To invest in community grounds that will also host community academies. That is my guarantee, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
