The Guyana Cricket Board at a Special Executive Committee meeting held on December 15th 2012 at the entity’s board room recognised that many issues at the GCB originated from the Demerara Cricket Board level and as such the Executive appointed a special committee to call and overlook new elections in Demerara.
This is according to a document sent to this newspaper recently. The committee also decided that the allocation of delegates shall be as per the last undisputed Annual General Meeting held in Demerara and each Sub Associations shall be awarded the same amount of delegates that they were entitled to when they last voted in an undisputed elections. It was further decided that no person who sits on either faction of the Demerara Cricket Board shall be a member of that special committee.
The committee also decided that the new constitution agreed to by the Executives, which includes changes made after consultation with stakeholders and suggestions from the WICB and the Government appointed IMC, shall be forwarded to the members and tabled at the next AGM for consideration, debate and possible approval.
It was also decided that the legal opinions obtained from Sir Fenton Ramsahoye SC and Mr. Keith Massiah SC reference the status of the injunction against some Officers of the GCB shall be shared with all stakeholders.
The document further indicated that in an effort to ensure that the WICB deadlines for submitting teams for the Regional Four day and one day tournaments are met, immediate plans be put in place to commence inter county games and practice matches.
And the GCB representatives at the WICB must make all effort to ensure that Guyana hosts regional and international matches in 2013; the Executive Committee continues to engage the Government of Guyana to assist in this regard.
