PPP expresses GECOM concerns

Mar 16, 2011 News

The People’s Progressive Party yesterday said that it is very concerned at the fact that it is drawing close to the period of “Claims and Objections” but the Commission is not meeting, due to lack of quorum.
This however has been debunked by a well placed source close to the Guyana Elections Commission given that there have been several meetings held this year.
The PPP in its statement notes that one member of the Commission recommended by the opposition leader has not attended any meeting for the year and the other two are often absent which leads to meetings not being held.
The PPP said that, “This can affect the preparatory work for the up-coming elections.”
Speaking with this newspaper the source pointed out that the commission was aware that the member whom the PPP referred to as not having attended meetings, would be travelling at the time. And whilst he was overseas his father-in-law died, and it was pointed out that the commission was aware of that fact which caused him to extend his stay.
The source insists that work has been ongoing and opined that the PPP’s statement was mischievous.
