Dear Sir,
It is with concern that I write you with regards to the above subject matter.
There was a remaining balance of $ 395,000.00 (Approximate) after upgrading the council’s office interior and exterior parts.
The Chairman and Vice Chairman took it upon themselves to construct a Chairman’s office within the N.D.C office, leaving inadequate space for councilor’s to sit during meeting.
It is very congested and does not allow for public observation of council meetings. Also they have constructed a wall so that tax payers cannot see or hear what is taking place at the meetings and if the tax payers need to meet them to discuss problems that are affecting them they cannot do so because of the wall. No Chairman of an N.D.C in Guyana has an office.
Honourable Minister, it was never a decision of the council to construct such an enclosure within the office. Imagine the Chairman’s office has three (3) doors, what for? All of this was done with subvention funds, which is illegal.
Kindly investigate and take the appropriate actions to have the Chairman’s office and the wall removed urgently.
There is also an urgent need for an overseer at the office, but nothing is being done.
Sincerely Yours.
