    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for your two minutes. As I said, I have limitations of time because I am just seconding. We also recommend that the Auditor General should within three months of the adoption of this Report undertake a special audit on the Treasury bonds and bills records for the period 2012/2013 to 2018/2019 financial years. The report should be tabled in the National Assembly within six months of adoption. I am sure the Members will be able to look into it. In general, we have made several recommendations as the Chair said; the Members will contribute and as it is indicated in the Report to ensure that public funds are spent prudently. The Constitution in Article 226 has given us powers to summon any officer who sits in any Government office who is either in or out of office to answer questions in terms of imprudent expenditure of funds. For that matter, no one will be able to run away with public funds. Allow me to also thank the offices of the Clerk and the Speaker for giving us extra time as a Committee to ensure that we were able to present the Audited Accounts Report to the National Assembly to benefit the national Government in terms of allocation of funds and the public in terms of ensuring their money is spent prudently and they receive what is theirs. I beg to second."
