The recent statements made by Public Health Minister Volda Lawrence at a PNCR meeting appear to signal violations of several parts of the Code of Conduct that governs the behaviour of ministers and other public officials, raising the question of how the government will deal with the infractions.
Lawrence, who is the Chairperson of the PNCR, was recorded at the party’s Congress Place, Sophia headquarters on November 25th telling attendees at a meeting that they should not be afraid to give jobs or contracts to party comrades, while indicating that she does the same.
“Well I got news for you: The only friends I got is PNC, so the only people I could give work to is PNC. And, right now, I looking for a doctor who can talk Spanish or Portuguese and ah want one that is PNC,” she is heard saying.
