    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have perused through some of the documents that were produced in the House and, after looking at them, it is clear that, that thing happened nearly 15 and 20 years ago. Even the documents that were produced here were just in bits and pieces. They do not really follow each other. However, when Mr. Agoye was recalled from Paris, he was not even given time to hand over. He was told to come back immediately. After the audit, he was asked to explain about the shortfall, which he did. I have a copy of the letter that was written to him, asking him to explain about the shortfall. I am ready to lay it on the Table. Secondly, the figures had been there before. By the time he joined the foreign mission, the figures were there. Those days, the Missions used to be told that they will get money from the Ministry. That money would delay even after it had been entered into the books. They would use bank overdrafts. By the time the money was sent, in some cases, the dollar would have gone up. That is the time the dollar kept on fluctuating every now and then. That is why the cash book and the bank statements, sometimes, used to differ. Immediately Mr. Agoye took office, he wrote to the Financial Controller and the figures could not tally. The Financial Controller authorized him to try and reconcile those books."
