The audited record

The Auditor-General counted this constituency's projects in its audit of the CDF. These are the audit's own totals — a separate record from the council's published list above. The audit does not publish the projects name by name, so its totals are never added to the council list (some projects appear in both records). Figures are as printed in the Auditor-General's reports — where a report does not publish a figure, this page says so rather than estimating it.
