    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, as said by the distinguished Senator for Makueni County, I want to emphasize the fact that we will be sitting here doing nothing if we do not establish a parliamentary audit office as it is in the United Kingdom (UK), Australia and other jurisdictions. The presiding Chair and I were in Australia and we saw that system working very well. Parliamentary auditors work hand in hand with Office of the Auditor-General and the Senate office in Sri Lanka. Therefore, for us to fortify the oversight role of the Senate, it is imperative we establish that office. Internal or external auditors are professionals trained in auditing. Their reports are timely and can be relied on in a court of law or in any fora addressing questions of misappropriation of funds. This is a serious office."
