MPs audit social protection policies

The 10-day mission will cover areas in Kgalagadi, Francistown, Selebi-Phikwe, Serowe, Molepolole, Francistown and Gaborone, committee leader and chairperson, Buti Billy has said.

The Francistown East legislator told Mmegi in an interview that from observation, he has realised that though government pumps millions annually towards social protection schemes, the expenditure does not tally with the impact on the ground. This is the first fact-finding assignment of its kind, he further said.
