Minister for National Planning and Alotau MP Charles Abel said with so much money going out to schools, it was incumbent onthe School Beards to utilisethe public funds accordingly.
“I’m expectingthe school board to utilisethe funds and spend it accordingly&hellipthe community also should be able to knowthe budget to understand wherethe funds are going,” said Abel.
