The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) yesterday stated that it has communicated and provided direction to the Liberty and Justice Party (LJP) about the required documents to be submitted to grant their request to replace its councillor on the Regional Democratic Council of Region Eight (Potaro-Siparuni).
GECOM provided the clarification yesterday afternoon while refuting LJP’s claim that the commission failed to act on its request to replace Coun-cillor Jimmy James.
Public Relations Officer at GECOM, Yolanda Ward, told this newspaper last evening that the delay resulted from the party’s non-compliance with the commission’s request. She stated that the commission up until December had been communicating with the Representative of the List, John Flores, on the status of the documents.
