The International Decade for People of African Descent Assembly-Guyana (IDPADA-G) has moved to the courts over the Government’s refusal to pay its $8 million monthly subvention.
The body is seeking an order mandamus directing the Minister of Finance to immediately pay to it, the sum that the Government has committed to.
This move by the organisation comes months after the Government abruptly stopped the monthly payment forcing it among others things, to send staff members home and discontinue some of its activities.
