Tancoo: NLCB operating like ‘runaway horse’
Public Accounts Committee chairman Davendranath Tancoo. -
Davendranath Tancoo, chairman of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), says the NLCB (National Lotteries Control Board) is operating like a “runaway horse with no audit and accountability,” despite spending billions in recent years.
He was speaking at a virtual PAC meeting on Wednesday morning.
He said he “unfortunately” needed to reiterate certain issues as they are yet to be rectified.
They include an outstanding audited financial statement that was supposed to be sent to the auditor general since 2013.
In December 2019, he said, the NLCB was reminded of this and said it would be dealt with soon. But it still has not been sent.
