    "content": "In the State Department for Infrastructure, contracts were irregularly varied upwards leading to possible loss. For example, Kiambu Regional Office decided to make payments worth Ksh359 million, up from Ksh273 million, a variation of Ksh86 million, which is 31 per cent above the required amount. The State Department for Housing also has an issue on budget implementation that we have referred to the Auditor-General, where unbudgeted expenditure amounting to Ksh531 million was spent. We want to know under what circumstances that happened. That amounts to spending without Parliament’s approval. In the State Department for Public Works, there were vehicles which did not have log books. We think there is irregularity. The log books cannot be traced and that needs to be investigated."
