    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware. (b) Following the suspected embezzlement of the society's funds and subsequent deterioration of services to the members, my Ministry instituted an inquiry in accordance with Section 58 of the Co-operative Societies Act on 24th July, 2008, to look into the by-laws, the working and financial conditions of Vihiga Teachers SACCO. Mr. Speaker, Sir, a report on the findings was tabled to the members on 4th October, 2008. Consequently, the members dissolved their society's management committee and an interim committee of five members was appointed for a period of 90 days to implement the recommendations of the report. (c) I am aware that there were acts of omission and commission in the management of the society. Following investigations and the tabling of the report, my Ministry has immediately frozen all the society's bank accounts until the time when a new management committee will take over the management of the society."
