    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support this Schedule of Disbursement. One of problems we are finding in the CPAIC is that when we audit, examine and interrogate those books is the late Exchequer releases from the National Treasury to the county governments. We are now seeing that one of the mischiefs that are causing the pending bills is because the funds that ought to be disbursed before 30th of June of the ensuing financial year are now being disbursed in the following financial year. Consequently, this does not fall within the budgets that the county governments had developed that are done very well. For your information, one of the audit reports that we went through is the report on Tharaka-Nithi County which is voluminous, and I know it will come to this House. We can take solace that we have looked at audit reports from Financial Years 2013/2014 to 2017/2018. We also looked at the audit report of Siaya County, where the Senate Minority Leader comes from. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
