The Guyana Trades Union Congress (GTUC) has called for political cooperation to set parameters for governance in the current aftermath of the passage of the opposition-sponsored no-confidence motion against the government.
In a statement issued yesterday, the labour organisation noted reports that the APNU+AFC government has established modalities on how it will function in the post no-confidence environment.
It said this is consistent with the July 12th written ruling of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ), which declared that government has a “caretaker” status as a result of the passage of the motion on December 21st, last year. “While this effort to set parameters for government in this period is encouraging, we await a consensus from both Government and the Opposition, for it is clear by now to all that consensus is difficult for both parties to agree to,” the GTUC, however, said.
