• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issues being raised by the hon. Member may require further scrutiny. That is because, apart from what I have tabled and indicated in my reply, there is also a letter that was addressed to Mr. Magai on 24th January, 2001 which gave him the reasons as to why some of the claims he wanted were not eligible and could not be paid. I will also, with the permission of Mr. Speaker, table this letter. I am willing to also look at the documents that the hon. Member has for further inquiry. But I am willing to ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, some local authorities have become notorious for non-remittance of deductions made on statutory basis due to various workers.

Let me state categorically from the outset that the WB has not withdrawn its funding for the project, neither has the project been cancelled.

• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the WB conducted a normal supervision mission on the project in June and July, 2011. The WB issued a draft report which revealed weaknesses in the financial management and arrangements for the project. The report is subject to change after quality assurance reviews and validation. The preliminary findings indicated weaknesses in the internal control procedures at the Project Management Unit (PMU) within the Office of the Prime Minister. These weaknesses appeared to have led to the expenditure that, though it is related to the project, may not be eligible for funding from the proceeds of the WB ... view
