We have a Ministry that has a Minister and two deputies and none of them have responded to this Committee. You have spent public money come and account for it. Your name appealed on the Auditor General\u2019s report which means there is something wrong.<\/p>\n \u201cCome and tell us how you will resolve the issue, you don\u2019t respect the Committee, you are invited, you don\u2019t honor it, it\u2019s not nice. We are going to report this so convene this to him,\u201d Mr. Avedzi stated.<\/p>\n The Chairman further pointed out that the Committee\u2019s mandate is backed by law and the standing orders of Parliament adding that the Committee reports to the House for decisions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Health News of Tuesday, 8 February 2022 Source: starrfm.com.gh Health Minister, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu The Health Minister, Kwaku Agyeman-Manu, will be called out for sanction by Parliament for his continued snubbing of the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament.
