    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the evidence adduced during our interviews with the officers who appeared before the Committee raised a few concerns with regard to the hiring of accountants at the Treasury and other Ministries. It became evident that we have very few qualified accountants in various Ministries. As such, we do not get competent reports and delivery of services. We have shoddy jobs being done because the officers do not adhere to the rules and regulations stipulated in various Acts. The Committee recommends that the Permanent Secretary, Treasury, should be empowered to go out in the market and hire competent and qualified accountants. For that matter, he should remunerate them in line with what the market offers. Otherwise, if this trend continues, we will have a situation where most of the accountants will be of mediocre calibre. They will not deliver and, hence, there will be no book keeping in various Ministries. We will also experience situations where purchases are done shoddily. This will result to wastage. The Government should heed to our request."
