Not satisfied with government’s answers surrounding the deal for the lease of the Carifesta Avenue lands to Qatari company – Qatar Assets Group Inc – for the development of a hotel here, APNU+AFC parliamentarian, David Patterson, says he will again go to the House in hopes of getting information for the public on the US multimillion-dollar agreement.
“When the Finance Minister [Dr Ashni Singh] was asked about the lease agreement, he was very disrespectful to the Parliament in his answers, dismissively saying it is public and we know where to find it. So I have informally and will formally ask the Parliament to help me find it,” Patterson told Stabroek News yesterday.
