• 16 Nov 2016 in National Assembly: organization that you are expected to audit. There has been gross misconduct and professional misconduct by the audit firm that now purports to be given this work. This is because they were given work to go and audit the Office of the Auditor-General. Around the same time, they went and got consultancies in the same office. Therefore, it would actually be an abuse to this House for Hon. Keynan and the Commission to be asking us to come and rubberstamp a process where one, we are contravening the Constitution, and two, we are rubberstamping a process where there has been ... view

• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As you rightly pointed out, many hon. Members might be out there with other business given that we are in the run-up to the general elections. However, your sentiments are quite in order because we have many Committees with pending reports. We also have the issue of quorum at this time of the year. In closing this debate, let me also take this opportunity to thank the Members of the PIC, especially those who were here yesterday afternoon and in the early parts of yesterday evening for their contributions to this Motion. I do not need ... view
• 6 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: We would like the DPP, the DCI and the EACC to consider the proposal that we discussed at that time with regard to seconding officers to PIC and PAC. Hon. Speaker, you realise the challenges that we have as a Committee. As much as we analyse all the audit reports that come to the two Committees, as Committees we have no powers to prosecute or do anything beyond making the recommendations that we bring to this House through these reports for debate and adoption. I must thank the Office of the DPP. Yesterday I mentioned the case of the Youth ... view

• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, from the Report that was tabled in the House, Members will realise that the Committee has gone through many things over the last few months to cover a total of 64 State corporations. We examined their audited financial statements as were tabled in the House. In examining and scrutinising the audited financial statements of all those State corporations, our primary approach was to elicit background information as to why each of them had issues that had been raised by the Auditor-General in his financial audit reports. Throughout our engagement with the various State corporations, we did examine each ... view
• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: The Committee has endeavoured to see to it that all our engagements are in line with all set Government regulations like the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal regulations of this country, the International Public Sector Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards relevant for commercial State corporations. To a large extent, the Committee has been guided by the mandate and strategic objectives of each of those State corporations or rather what each of those State corporations is expected to achieve for this country at the time they were established. view

• 5 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: I will enumerate a few of the general observations and recommendations as per the findings on the audited financial statements of the 64 State corporations. Just like we had reported in our 19th Report, which we tabled, debated and adopted by this House sometimes this year and towards the end of last year, the Committee observed that very many State corporations still continue to operate under a very weak financial position. They operate under very strict financial constraints largely occasioned by mismanagement and imprudent commercial practices within their operations. view
