Labour Minister Dr. Nanda Gopaul, who is responsible for co-operatives, warned on Friday that the law will be allowed to take its course against those executive members who engage in illicit transactions and pay very little regard to the management of their co-ops.
“For far too long we’ve had dishonest acts carried out by the leaders of co-ops. We’ve had cases whereby members fail to report these matters, such as ensuring an audit report is presented, and it is at that point the Chief Co-operatives Development Officer and his staff will intervene,” Minister Gopaul said
