    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairman, I beg to move that New Clause 1A be now read a Second Time. This is an amendment to the principal Act by introducing this New Clause 1A. All Government entities are required to submit their financial statements to the Auditor-General for audit within three months before December. However, those three months give the Auditor- General too little time. The end of a financial year is 30th June. The three months that follow are July, August and September. The Auditor-General is left with only October, November and December to consider the financial statements, do audit, require accounting officers to do a management response, and submit a report to this House by the 31st December. This new clause is reducing the time in which accounting officers present their financial statement to the Auditor-General from three months to two months."
