What excuses have the ETBs that have not submitted accounts going back to 2015 and 2014 given for not submitting them and showing where and how they are spending their allocated money? I do not want any student to suffer because of mismanagement by the boards, but there should be some mechanism in place to ensure people are efficient and come up to scratch. Can we pinpoint why they have not submitted their audits? What reasons have they given? Is it that they do not have the required personnel? What is the problem?
