The Privatisation Commission irregularly paid some MPs Sh5.02 million in allowances to attend a conference held in Kisumu in January 2018, according to the latest report of the Auditor-General.

The audit report for the year ending June 30, 2018 said the payment violated a 2015 presidential executive order that requires daily subsistence and other allowances for MPs invited for or involved in the activities of government ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) be fully catered for by Parliament, their employer.
