There are some forms of controls over the administration of a country. One of those controls is budgetary control. Power of passing the budget is vested into parliament. However, within the executive there are three main agencies which are responsible for proper allocation and spending of funds. Those three agencies are Central Board of Revenue, Finance Ministry and Auditor General. CBR collects funds, FM gives the ascent, AG prepares the audit report. From this step onwards, PAC comes into action. At the end of a fiscal year, it scrutinises all the funds allocated to administration along with ensuring the proper spending and completion of various projects including economic ventures. Ultimately, it provides the feedback to the parliament. With these points in view, it may be concluded that PAC keeps the vigilant eye over public funds.
Please rectify if I'm wrong at some points.
