In the midst of the inconvenience brought about by the recent spate of blackouts along the coast, the government and opposition are still engaged in a ‘back and forth’ with regard to the Guyana Power and Light Inc’s (GPL) responsibilities.
The most recent episode concerns an invitation by email, seen by this newspaper, sent by Minister within the Ministry of Public Works, Deodat Indar, which invited members of the Economic Services Committee of parliament to a meeting with Prime Minister Mark Phillips yesterday at 3:00pm, at his office in Georgetown.
According to the invitation there was only a single item listed on the agenda for the meeting. “1. Updates on GPL and the recent power outages.”
