Finance and Planning Select Committees of the Parliament delivered progress reports on inspections they conducted. The session held today at the premises of the parliament comes in the wake of mounting criticisms about the role of the Parliament acting as an enabler for the Puntland State Government rather than as an independent institution with a mandate to keep tabs on government activities.
Puntland Ministry of Finance has been criticised for withholding World Bank grants particularly “cash transfers to vulnerable households”.
