It was observed that the inventory of office furniture and equipment including electronics and other store item was not maintained by the store officers in the ministry. Records of purchases and distribution of stationeries and other goods are not kept. Every member of staff member of staff of the other ministry was a store officer, market survey were not done prior to procurement and procured items were never sent to the store’s unit for documentation. Consequently, a comprehensive audit of the stores unit could not be carried out. The mon-maintenance of store records is wrong and unacceptable at it flies in the face of the provisions of the financial regulations. The absence of control over public assets, which the stores unit provides, create loopholes for persons of doubtful character to pilfer to steam government property. Stores records allow for the easy trace of movement and location of government property.
