    "content": "department that has money but it does not utilize it, it means that the citizens of that county are starved of services. There are those who thought that in the first years of devolution, Turkana County was not in a position to absorb the tens of billions of shillings that were allocated to it. Finally, it was observed that the County Government vehicles were used without any regulations governing the movements beyond the normal working hours. Madam Temporary Speaker, I also want to note that in the audit reports of 2013/2014, the Auditor-General, to a great extent, did not express an opinion. He undertook an audit of operations of the county governments rather than an audit of the financial statements of the county governments. Therefore, for Turkana County, it will not be possible for us to say that the Auditor-General gave a qualified or unqualified opinion because he did not report on that in the Audit Report of 2013/2014. It is only in the audit reports for 2014/2015 that he was consistent and gave an opinion for each county that was audited. Madam Temporary Speaker, the recommendations from the Auditor-General and the Committee should help us to improve operations in Turkana County. If we were to do this close to the year that the events happened, it would have been of greater value to the people of Turkana County. Madam Temporary Speaker, I, therefore, wish to move that the House adopts the Motion on the adoption of the Report of the CPAIC on the financial operations of Turkana County Executive for the Financial Year 2013/2014. I request Sen. (Prof.) Sam Ongeri, a Member of the Committee, to second the Motion. Thank you."
