    "content": "Departmental Committees have an obligation to scrutinise the development expenditure on quarterly basis. The National Treasury and the Budget Office of the National Assembly should update us on quarterly basis especially on development expenditure whether the money has been released to the projects or not. We do a lot of work at the committee level to appropriate money to different development projects in this country but at the end of the financial year, we do not see this money going to the projects. When we ask the relevant Ministries, they say that the problem is with the Exchequer. Therefore, as Legislators and people conferred with the mandate of oversight in this Republic, we are left wondering the type of overseeing we are doing when we appropriate money from this House and then it does not go to the intended projects."
