"content": "payment but the Attorney-General does not inform the Treasury. In the process, we end up with the Government incurring a lot of loses. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, under the same Ministry, in the Department of Defence, we found the issue of lose of cash at Nyali Barracks, Mombasa. One would have thought that senior officers in the army are leaders in the example of discipline. However, when you see how cash was lost at the Nyali Barracks, you wonder what they mean by the disciplined forces. It left us wondering whether they are more disciplined than our primary school scouts; the little boys and girl guides, who would not dare do these kinds of things. My Committee noted with grave concern that payment of Kshs5 million by the Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) was made without authentic authorization, contrary to banking regulations, suggesting insider dealing or collusion between the bank, teller and officer involved. The Committee recommends that the Accounting Officer, in liaison with the Director, Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) should follow up the recovery of those amounts of Kshs5 million from the bank in question for failure to verify authorization and abetting crime. The Committee also recommends that the Accounting Officer should liaise with the Attorney-General to apprehend the culprits. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, under the Ministry of Regional Development Authorities, we found the following key issues: Excess vote amounting to Kshs542, 410,134, under Paragraph 344. The Committee recommends that thorough investigations should be undertaken by the Controller and Auditor-General and the Treasury to ascertain the circumstances that led to the payment of Kshs542,410,134 without Parliamentâs authority, with a view to holding those responsible and disciplining the officers who breached the law."
