    "content": "accountant myself, and I feel convinced that if they do the right audit cycles, they will be able to cover not only 2017/2018, but as my brother says, 2018/2019. The Office of the Auditor-General is our top office in respect of audit and accounts. So, I expect that the draft accounts for the last Financial Year 2018/2019 must already have been done and should be available for audit. They are the top office in this country and they expect other offices to have their accounts ready for timely audit. I feel that they should also now step out and be able to provide the auditors with the final accounts for the Financial Year 2018/2019. We would like to tell PKF that the spotlight is on them. We want a very professional audit done. You will be seen and assessed by your peers. As the Chairman of the African Parliamentarians’ Network Against Corruption (APNAC), we demand transparency, accountability and good governance. The Office of the Auditor-General is the first of such offices of which we demand these requirements. I am sure they will provide those. I am sure that the questions that will be raised will be answered very quickly and efficiently. This is an important day for us because, as I said, the issue of auditing the Auditor-General has been very topical. Parliament has been questioned why it has not been able to agree on this. I do not want to speak any more, but as far as APNAC is concerned, this is truly a momentous day. We plead with Members to kindly approve this Motion and this particular appointment. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker."
