    "content": " Appointment of Controller of Budget. I beg to move the Motion: THAT, taking into consideration the findings of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning in its Report on the Vetting of the Nominee for Approval as the Controller of Budget, laid on the Table of the House on Tuesday, 3rd December 2019, and pursuant to the provisions of Article 228(1) of the Constitution, Section 4(10) of the Controller of Budget Act, 2016 and Section 8 of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2011, this House approves the appointment of Dr. Margaret Nyang’ate Nyakang’o as the Controller of Budget. As a Committee, we did vet Margaret Nyakang’o and we realised that she has the necessary qualifications having worked at the KNBS as the Finance and Administration Director for 10 years. In addition, she has also worked as Principal Auditor, State Corporation, from 1993 to 1994 and also worked as Senior Auditor in the central Government and local government in the former Controller and Auditor-General’s Office. She has a wealth of experience from the private sector. We realised that apart from that, she answered our questions very well. In terms of integrity, there was nobody who came up with any report suggesting that she is not really qualified to handle this particular job."
