Playing oversight role


I WOULD like to join others in congratulating the Public Accounts Committee of Parliament (PAC) for coming out with its report on 1MDB based on testimonies from key witnesses called before the committee. The transcripts make interesting reading of who said what and raise more questions, which hopefully will be answered when the investigations by the professionals in the National Audit Department are released in the form of a public report.

Whatever the critics may say about the PAC proceedings and its report, the committee is nevertheless a good example of how parliament can play an oversight role on the Government and its agencies.
