Efforts are underway to hold a delegates-only Con-gress in October in deference to COVID-19 protocols and in obser-vance of the 64th Anniver-sary of the People’s National Congress Reform (PNCR).
This is according to party elder Hamilton Green. Green, a former General Secretary of the party, told Stabroek News that since he is no longer an executive member he holds no official informa-tion but he is aware of certain preparations. PNCR officials have been mum on a Congress date and related matters.
“My information is that they are thinking of a reduced Congress opera-tion. Our Congress includes delegates and observers but because of COVID-19 and space constraints they are now considering just having delegates or reducing it to a smaller number. I think the timeline they are working with is to coincide with the party’s formation in October,” Green stated.
