The Houses of Parliament, as the legislative branch of Government, is responsible for enacting laws and provide representation to the people of Jamaica.  The main objectives of the HoP are to facilitate the timely making, reviewing and amendment of Jamaican legislation; and to provide commissions of Parliament with the required administrative support to carry out their mandate. 

This special audit was initiated in response to stakeholder allegations of mismanagement at the Houses of Parliament, specifically concerning fleet vehicle operations, procurement activities and the use of government-funded credit cards. In line with departmental policy, a preliminary assessment was conducted to evaluate the credibility of these allegations and to determine whether there was sufficient justification to proceed with a formal audit. Based on the findings of this assessment, the Auditor General approved the commencement of the audit.
