What should be the prudent situation in this case and what should follow if the particular Ministry has more than one Vote and more than one Accounting Officer? Hon. Members, I will attempt to address these questions in a consolidated manner. From the onset, the oversight role of the House over the Executive through Committees must be clear and consistent. The Standing Orders attempt to instill clarity and consistency by outlining the functions that may be discharged by Departmental Committees in their interaction with the Executive. You will note that the mandate of the Departmental Committees of the House is subject-based and does not necessarily mirror the structure of the Executive and whereas other Parliaments structure their sectoral committees in line with the structure of the Executive, the National Assembly has preferred a subject-based approach for oversight by its Committees. This approach, which is not unique to our Parliament but is replicated in various other jurisdictions, is informed by the fact that the structure of Executive is likely to change from time to time."
