The offices of the Auditor-General and the Controller of Budget could soon get powers to institute punitive measures on non-compliant government institutions, should Parliament approve a report by the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC).
The report, already approved by the Committee, is now before the National Assembly and also calls for the creation of a law to ensure increased funding to the independent institutions to guarantee operational flexibility.
