The Senate County Public Accounts Committee (CPAC) has called on the Office of the Auditor General to conduct a Special audit on how the Sh27 billion allocated to the defunct Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) was expended.

The Committee further wants similar audits conducted to determine the size of Nairobi Own Source Revenue and the pending bills incurred by both the City County and NMS in the last five years.

A Gambian delegation, led by Gambian National Assembly Speaker Hon. Fabakary Tombong Jatta, Minority Leader Hon. Alhagie Darboe, and House Clerk Mr. Momodou Sise, has arrived in Kenya for a week-long study tour of the Kenyan Parliament. The delegation aims to learn from the Kenyan bicameral Parliament's legislative and administrative processes.

The Senate Speaker Amason Kingi has said that the delay by National Treasury to disburse funds to counties and inadequate allocation for devolved functions remain the biggest threats to Devolution.

The Speaker called for a robust engagement between the Council of Governors, National Treasury and Parliament on how disbursements can be improved to hasten service delivery to counties.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) wants the Government Advertising Agency (GAA)  to review its advertising model and to embrace one that ensures content reaches the majority.

The Committee said that the current model that gave preference to four mainstream print Media Houses was not effective as the advertisements were not reaching majority of targeted readers.

They said that key advertisements such as job opportunities were placed in the adverts and therefore should be accessible by job seekers who could not be able to buy newspapers.
