Hon. Speaker, the Committee is also considering the Auditor-General’s Annual Report on the Appropriation of all Government Accounts for the national Government for the Financial Year 2013\2014. The Committee is currently on the tail-end of receiving defence of audit queries from the accounting officers and will table its report by mid-March, 2016. The Committee notes with concerns the inability of some ministries, departments and Government agencies, for example, the Ministry of Devolution and Planning and the Agricultural Sector Coordination Units to provide certain documentation for verification as pointed out in the Auditor-General’s Audit Report.

17 Feb 2016 in National Assembly:
The Committee is contemplating taking appropriate action in order to compel the affected ministries and departments to produce the required documents. In this case, we have a number of departments which have failed to provide the necessary documentation. The Committee wishes to give particular attention to the Ministry of Devolution and Planning with regard to the infamous Asset Register and on expenditures incurred by the National Youth Service (NYS) totalling to Kshs16 billion which, to-date, have no documentation to account for it. This is holding back the Committee’s Report.
