Eight months after the conclusion of a Commission of Inquiry into the functioning of City Hall, the Local Government Commission (LGC) is still working to implement the over 30 recommendations that were made.
In an interview with Stabroek News, LGC Chairman Mortimer Mingo indicated that several of the recommendations were referred to City Hall for implementation.
“Several of these relate to payments to agencies such as NIS [National Insurance Scheme] and GRA [Guyana revenue Authority] as well as various contractors,” he said, while adding that feedback has since been received that the issues have been “referred to various committees of the [Mayor and City Council] where payments are concerned.”
