and (ii) his deputy minister from 1 January 2011 up to the latest

CW779E
REPLY:-
(a)(i)(ii)&(b) I wish to inform the Honourable Member that my Department is
not immediately able to furnish the audited details relating to expenses
incurred by (i) myself and (ii) the Deputy Minister as outlined above.Â
This is due to the fact that the area was identified as low risk area in
relation to other focus areas of the audit and as such, it was not
specifically conducted or scheduled for auditing as the audit plan is risk
based. In the light of the audited report on the above request not being
immediately available, the information can only be provided after an audit
has been conducted and arrangements can be made to have it done and
completed if requested.
