-three senior officers to proceed on leave to facilitate fraud probeGovernment is considering the installation of an Interim Management Committee (IMC) to manage the affairs of the city, according to Cabinet Secretary Dr Roger Luncheon, yesterday. Cabinet also signaled its intention to have the municipality send three senior staffers of the Mayor and City Councillors of Georgetown (M&CC) on leave to facilitate criminal fraud investigations.Government in recent years has been battling the M&CC over the state of Georgetown which it says has literally turned from being the “Garden City” to the garbage city.Yonetter Pluck CortM&CC, in its defence,Wholesale Stitched Jerseys, has claimed that government was starving it from critical revenues by not approving an increase in rates and taxes.No Local Government election has been held since the 90s with government still to table long-awaited new legislations that would clear the way for new polls.A damning report by consultant Ramon Gaskin, a member of a special committee established by Government, recently spoke of failure and seemingly deliberate frustration by M&CC staffers to implement a number of measures to improve the running of the city. It also spoke of systematic corruption.Speaking during the government’s weekly press briefing, Dr Luncheon made it clear that the municipality of Georgetown has long time ceased to work in the interest of taxpayers. It is now rife with a culture of corrupt practices and financial irregularities that have been chronicled in reports of the Auditor General, he said.A Commission of Inquiry headed by Keith Burrowes confirmed allegations of wrongdoings with recommendations made to bring reverse to the city’s fortunes.According to Dr Luncheon, the Cabinet of Ministers had urged a probe into the findings of the Ramon Gaskin report.Government would now be moving to have three “targeted” senior officials proceed on leave to facilitate police investigations.The three officers under fire at the M&CC are Town Clerk,Cheap Wholesale Jerseys, Yonnette Pluck; City Treasurer,Cheap NFL jerseys China, Andrew Meredith, and City Engineer, Gregory Erskine.Dr Luncheon made it clear that government was prepared to release the Ramon Gaskin report which spells out details of corruption and how M&CC failed to implement critical measures that were recommended by the Commission of Inquiry.“Cabinet reflected on the dissolution of the Council and its replacement by an IMC. The need for citizens to inquire into the debacle at the Council was considered by Cabinet… to be irrefutable.The Cabinet was presented with arguments to pursue with that course of action,” the official said yesterday.He also claimed that Government has been receiving calls for an IMC from especially the business sector, taxpayers and organized labour.Dr Luncheon made it clear, also, that the replacement of Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) across the country with IMCs was done in keeping with established procedures which included petitions being filed and inquiries being held.Government had installed an IMC once, in 1993,Cheap Adidas Hockey Jerseys, to replace the M&CC prior to the holding of Local Government elections in 1994.? But there were strong objections when the government attempted to do the same thing a second time and the matter died a natural death.The Burrowes Commission was established in 2008 following several issues raised in the Auditor General’s Report of the same year. The Terms of Reference (ToR) required an investigation into the offices of the City Treasurer and Town Clerk; the procedures regarding regulation of staff loans and advances; irregularities in rate collection; municipal accounts in commercial banks; and restructuring of municipal departments and their operations.Some 40 recommendations by the ‘Burrowes Report’ were said to have never been implemented by the M&CC.Investigations have suggested, among other things,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, that around half of the 800 staffers of M&CC were believed to be phantom workers.The commission began its work in September 2008 and concluded in May 2009. It presented its report that same year.Following the Commissioner’s Report, the Minister of Local Government established the Implementation Committee which was specifically mandated to implementing the recommendations made in the Burrowes Report.The findings along with substantiated reports of corrupt practices within the M&CC were submitted to the Minister of Local Government,Cheap Jerseys From China, Ganga Persaud, by the Implementation Committee.
