    "content": "In light of that, we recommended that the Committee reprimand the then accounting officer for violating Section 8 of the State Corporations Act. It provides that two-thirds of the total number of members of the board shall be the quorum for conducting business at a meeting of a board. The decision to pay the Ksh30 million was arrived at when the board was not fully constituted. It meant that it was a way of making some ill recommendations to pay out the Ksh30 million without the recommendation of the full board. The Committee reprimands the then accounting officer for failing to adhere to Article 230(4)(a) of the Constitution. Within three months upon the adoption of this Report, the EACC should investigate the conduct of the then accounting officer and the then board of directors on the payment of locum amounting to Ksh30,844,552 to ascertain any impropriety. The ODPP to take the necessary action should any officer be found culpable."
