The National Audit Bill was passed with amendments in Parliament without a vote a short while ago.

The enactment of the National Audi Bill is an election promise made by the government to be implemented during the 100-day programme of its rule in 2015.

However, it remained shelved due to differences of opinion among various stakeholders. (Yohan Perera and Ajith Siriwardane)

It would have been good if it had some retrospective effect.Those who looted,blundered,and caused loss and damage to the economy and country in the past have escaped punishment!

These bills are soon become bills to people.bills are passing but nothing is implimenting.rules ate there but not implimenting.

Wonder what the bill looks like AFTER the amendments? Probably a watered down version to escape real accountability, much like the fin version of the RTI. Campaign promise kept prior to the next election, but the content and implementation is what will determine if these are sweet nothings.
