What does NAPAC do now? Financial constraint PAC not independent of executive Regulatory framework to define the relationship/ linkages between a

strong PAC and A-G PAC Challenge – Dependence (funding; reliance on parliament as a

whole for an effective PAC; timely submission of audit report by A-G; technical support to PAC from A-G) and Independence of the PACs and

Members of PAC (NB suggestion PAC Chair should be from the opposition)

A-G Challenge – Independence of the A-G (funding; empowered through technical training; need to collaborate closely with PAC around A-G budget; timely submission of info by Accountant-General)

CSOs – Engaging civil society as a separate source of information

Enhance citizen participation in PAC sittings Non-binding nature of resolutions/ outcomes of PAC reports – how to

enforce recommendations/ lack of sanction? Leadership/ Political Will cf Political Partisanship Lack of knowledge on how to analyze audit reports/ A-G preparing a

PAC friendly report? Non-passage of Audit Bill

Stakeholders Not in the Room
