He expressed optimism that all the facts will be put out by the audit process.
The Governor, Dr Johnson Asiama had informed Parliament of the decision to conduct a value-for-money audit of the new Bank of Ghana Headquarters building at Ridge, Accra.
Briefing a committee of Parliament on the cost of the project on Wednesday, March 5, Dr Asiama said efforts are underway to engage the Architectural and Engineering Services Limited (AESL) to conduct the audit after board approval.
