    "content": "I also want to comment on the issue of auditing of the NG-CDF projects. Just about two weeks ago, we were doing presentations. I wish the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee was here when the Departmental Committees presented their reports to the BAC. I happened to be in a Committee session where the Auditor General also made a presentation of his office’s budget to the BAC. There was a very pertinent question that the Auditor General was asked - why within a week, there are three different auditors auditing the NG-CDF projects. Some are from the Kenya National Audit Office (KENAO), others from the regional office, others from the national office and others from the county itself. I do not think the auditors focus so much on other devolved funds the way they do on the NG-CDF projects. There is nothing to hide, but I remember what the Auditor General was asked in that session. They come with a specific project that they want to see. Is it not enough for the Auditor General and the national office of the NG-CDF Board to send an auditor to audit the books of accounts and the projects on the ground for the respective NG-CDF? Having different auditors on a weekly basis destabilises the work of the NG-CDF offices on the ground. A lot of time and money is spent just auditing one project by four different categories of auditors."
