"content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. One of the biggest reasons why this country has dragged behind in development is because of corruption which has been here for the last more than 50 years. This has happened when we have the Office of the Auditor-General. This is one of the offices which have not been having teeth to bite because it only recommends. I think now is the time we should give the Auditor-General the teeth to bite. During the Anglo Leasing saga a report was brought to this House but by then it was not possible for this House to do its job properly due to interference from the Executive. If we are to give this office power then let it be independent such that they can take the perpetrators of misuse of public funds to court."
