Batohi, who took over the reins midway through this previous financial year, told Members of Parliament that the NPA's performance left a lot to be desired.
She said while they are trying to turn the situation around there is a lack of finances.
She told Parliament they are desperate for funds and have not been able to fill posts as a result.
