And, Rodriguez explained that this process of locking out the constitutionally enshrined Auditor General persists to the present day:
Maria Rodriguez, Auditor General
"That I was trying to do cash surveys, a simple routine cash survey, which is to just check the cash pan to see that what you collected yesterday is correct. And I was not allowed to enter two entities."
"And I will highlight it because this is my opportunity. BAHA and Border Management Agency told my staff that they are not government entities. And I fully disagree because the Constitution gives me all the right to go and do a cash survey to these authorities."
"So I want to put it out here. It will be placed in my subsequent audit report because it is important to highlight this. I am still receiving rejection from government entities."
