    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I also wish to comment on the adoption of audit reports. This House approved amendments to the PFM Act. Therefore, we will be doing nothing, as legislators, if we do not approve audited accounts. Once we have audited reports, other than summoning a few CSs, there is nothing much we do. Our Committee suggested that within three months after the BPS is published, if the National Assembly does not approve it, then it is assumed to be past. Therefore, our Members will be referring to the approved BPS. There is also the need to strengthen internal audit to ensure that the level of corruption reduces. That is one of the recommendations by my professional bodies known as the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK). Right now, there are no audit committees, and if there are there, governors control them. There is need to look at that. The lawyers in this House should help us on that. 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."
