"content": "There is a precedent to this. In this same House, we have passed the law governing the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) which recruits its own staff. The import of the President’s Memorandum is that the Office of the Auditor-General will be required to recruit its own staff in consultation with the (PSC). This is fundamental. As we go into this consideration, what happens when we have two Articles of the Constitution which seem to be in conflict? More fundamentally, if you look at the President’s last Memorandum, he is recommending that the regulations governing the Public Audit Bill shall be prepared by the Cabinet Secretary (CS) responsible for matters related to finance. This is a dangerous conflict. Why do I say so? It is a dangerous conflict because CS in charge of Finance is one of the auditees of the Auditor-General."
