The Public Accounts Committee, consisting of a Chairperson, Ranking Member, Vice Chairperson, Deputy Ranking Member, and up to twenty-one other members, is mandated by the Constitution to examine the Auditor-General's report on Ghana's public accounts. The Chairperson, from the opposition, presides over the Committee, except when matters relate to their party's administration, in which case the Ranking Member assumes chairmanship. To expedite proceedings, the Committee may form subcommittees, including those focused on educational institutions, statutory funds, public accounts, performance audits, foreign exchange, and monitoring, with the possibility of establishing additional subcommittees as needed.
