"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This matter is of special interest to me because one of my constituents, the Principal Secretary (PS) Mutea Iringo, as you know, was asked to step aside because of the role he played in the national security business when he was in the Office of the President. You have heard about audit queries of Kshs2.8 billion. However, officers are put under very difficult circumstances because some of the expenditures that they incur are supposed to be secrets for purposes of undercover activities of the Government. They cannot come to Parliament and explain exactly what they did because they are bound by the Oath of Secrecy; not to disclose. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, a system has to be developed using international standards. This is not the only country where we have Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOTs) analysis. The United States of America (USA) Government operates the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). We can borrow experiences from them to see how audits are done so that we do them in this country. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
