  • 31 Jul 2013 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, on the same issue of the conditional allocations, the Chairman of the Committee on Finance promised that he would give us an itemised breakdown. This is very important for us as well as those who will be oversighting, including auditors. We do not doubt the differences, but it is better to be clearer. I propose that the Committee should consider having another schedule. We were told that the lists are there and are very clear. There is no harm in the same being appended as an additional schedule. view
