]]> The Parliamentary Committee on Commissions, Statutory Authority and State Enterprises last week sent away representatives of five Chinese construction companies over failure to provide relevant documents detailing the payment of project affected persons on the various road works across the country.

MP Abdu Katuntu the Chair of the Committee.

MP Abdu Katuntu the Chair of the Committee.

This During an interface between the committee chaired by MP, Abdul Katuntu into the audit queries of Uganda National Roads Authority for the financial year 2014/2015 and  the 5 companies including China railway 18th Group, China railway No.3 Group, China Railway No. 5, Zhongmei Engineering Company and China Chongqing International Construction Corporation.

The committee discovered that part of the 47billion that was advanced to these contractors to compensate people affected by road works was instead deposited and is currently being held in separate bank accounts in China instead of Banks in Uganda.

Katuntu directed the Chinese officials to return to the committee tomorrow with all the financial statements showing the progress of compensations and other documents showing advance guarantees.

We captured the proceedings of the committee while Katuntu was questioning the Chinese officials.

A committee member also, Kibaale MP, Engineer Cuthbert Abigaba, expressed disappointment with the unpreparedness of the Chinese officials to explain how government funds are being handled.
