• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: So, the Auditor-General knew he was leaving. He knew that this Report is due at a particular time. That is why he appointed auditors to go and audit the CBK. It is not clear as to whether this same Auditor-General who left knew he was leaving office. It is also not clear as to what he expected out of the audit he asked his officers to do. It is really disturbing and not clear as to what is happening in the Office of the Auditor-General. The Committee needs to go beyond this particular Report and understand what is happening there. ... view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: From the Report, it is very clear that the former Auditor-General had time to prepare himself. He had time to assign some officers responsibility to incur expenses. He prepared himself by assigning officers to various audits and he had all the time. If there was all that time and he had prepared himself, was he communicating with the authorities that are responsible for his replacement or it was a calculated delay? This is disturbing. As my brother, Hon. Kioni said, we are just coming from the important BBI launch. One of the key areas of the BBI is to ensure ... view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Auditor-General; a position which has been in place for many years. We knew the Auditor- General was retiring and he had prepared himself to leave. The Head of the Public Service also knew the position was falling vacant. It is a very important position which looks at our resources.

• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I thought you have just directed that we are discussing the amendment that has been proposed and not the substantive Report that we are continuing to discuss thereafter. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have a problem supporting this amendment because I have read the Report. The Committee is yet to meet the relevant agencies that determine when the Auditor-General will be appointed. The Committee has asked for a period of six months before doing as the Speaker advised them, that they should consult with the relevant agencies including the Public Service Commission, so that we can know where we are in this process. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I want the Chair of the PIC to tell us where he got this time estimate given the interdependency of the various agencies that are supposed to participate in the appointment of the Auditor-General. From the Report, it is very clear that as long as we do not have an Auditor- General in place, we shall not have this Report. So, for us to talk about six months… The Chair is not listening. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I would like to hear from him how they arrived at six months before meeting the relevant agencies including the PSC to know if they have already started the process of recruiting the Auditor-General. view
• 27 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 20 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I was elected the Vice-Chair of one of the sub- committees and so, I am waiting for the minutes. view
