A debate ensued before the Finance and Public Accounts Committee (FPAC) regarding the auditing of the accounts of the judiciary. Section 160(1)(c) states:
“The Auditor General shall at least once in every year audit and report on the public accounts of The Gambia, the accounts of all offices and authorities of the Government of The Gambia, the accounts of the courts, the accounts of the National assembly and the accounts of all enterprises;”
Hence it is the responsibility of the auditor general directly or through external auditors to audit the accounts of the courts on an annual basis and report its findings to the National Assembly.
