Is it not time that details be given of how much money was dispersed and to whom.
Five, similarly, when will we be given appropriate details, even if it is block by block or village by village of how much was handed out for flood relief.

Is it true that instructions were given for ethnic balance with respect to recruitment in Security Forces? So if ethnic balance is the new policy, this ought to be made public and the percentage should be known. Amerindians, Africans, Portuguese, Chinese, White Europeans and Mixed.
If this is the new policy, with which I disagree, but if so, it should apply across the Board, State land leases, mining leases, Government Contracts, Licences for firearms, etc and finally, what is the policy with respect to immigrants, in particular from, Venezuela, Cuba, Brazil, Haiti and the English-speaking Caribbean?
What is the Government’s position with the recalled High Commissioner to India, Charrandass Persaud being given or has been given?
So we have the bizarre saga of the relief of the ship which caused one billion dollars damage to the Demerara Harbour Bridge. Have we had an explanation?

All of the above ought not to be secret.
Yours Truly,
