Cabinet Secretary and Head of the Presidential Secretariat (HPS), Dr. Roger Luncheon was the first member of the government camp to admit yesterday that the profanity-laced 19-minute recorded conversation involving Attorney General Anil Nandlall and Kaieteur News reporter, Leonard Gildarie, could have an effect on the ruling party.
Dr. Luncheon made this assertion during a post-cabinet press briefing held at Office of the President.
He was questioned whether government is concerned about Nandlall’s utterances having a negative impact on its strength in going into election mode.
To this, the HPS responded, “I would be the first to concede that the nature of the utterances must have been considered. Our specific reactions have dealt with confirmation as to whether the level of manipulation, distortions can be scientifically established and if the correct version of the recording was made available…the second part has to do with the content itself and that must ultimately be confirmed as accurate… So yes, elections and an impact, that goes without saying.”
The Cabinet Secretary also stated that Government’s efforts are minimally two-fold; to inquire into, and to investigate scientifically and technologically the authentic content of the recording. “And then you might say in our usual parlance, deal with the fallout of what comes from establishing authentic content.”
Dr. Luncheon also confirmed yesterday that instructions have already been given for Government to take local and international steps with regard to the recording.
