Dear Mr. Hunte,

Thank you for your letter dated on December 4, 2012. The comments provided on the draft legislation and constitution has been noted. As I had stated previously the
Government of Guyana would be tabling the Bill to the National Assembly on the 17th December 2012 for First reading.

We anticipate that the subsequent reading would conclude by the end of December 2012. Again we reiterate our position that after the passage of the Bill we would like within the shortest time to proceed to the elections of the Guyana Cricket Board under the new constitution.

We look forward to the West Indies Cricket Board’s full cooperation as we take the necessary steps to make the Guyana Cricket Board into legal entity. We would therefore like to have a meeting under the CARICOM mechanism to finalize the next steps.

You would also recalled that at our meeting on November 24, 2012, the Government of
Guyana has asked that the West Indies Cricket Board to appoint an agent to manage cricket while the regularization process is ongoing. You agreed, that the matter would be put to the WICB and a response would be forthcoming within 48 hours. Unfortunately, I have not received an official response as yet.

As you are aware the former Guyana Cricket Board is not properly constituted since most
of the members resigned, this was documented and send to you since the 22nd March
2012. I have included a copy of that letter with all the attachments.

In addition an injunction is in force that prevents any member of the former Board from performing their duties as members of the Guyana Cricket Board. I have attached a copy of the Court order of 9th May 2012 that effectively restores the injunctions that had been earlier discharged.

The lawyers have advised that if any of the named members of the former Guyana Cricket Board violate the Court order they will be in contempt of Court. I am sure that a law-abiding organization like the WICB would not encourage a breach of the law.

In the light of the foregoing, the former GCB cannot act as your agent until the Court matters are resolved and the GCB is properly constituted. We would therefore like to encourage the WICB to appoint an agent to act on your behalf during this period.

One of the immediate issues that must be dealt with is the Guyana’s team participation in the T20 Tournament. This is a national concern and we urge that you allow our team to participate. For this purpose, please see below the names of the Guyana National Team selected to participate in the subject Tournament:

Ramnaresh Sarwan (Captain), Veerasammy Permaul (Vice Captain), Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Royston Crandon, Assad Fudadin, Jonathan Foo, Christopher Barnwell, Devindra Bishoo, Derwin Christian, Ransford Beaton, Gajanand Singh, Richard Ramdeen and Delon Heyliger. Carl Moore (Manager) and Esuan Crandon – Coach

This team was selected by the last legally- constituted Senior Selection Panel of the Guyana Cricket Board namely: Claude Raphael, Hubern Evans and Rabindranauth Seeram.
If you require any additional information on the team please feel free to contact the
Selectors.

I look forward to meeting with you under the auspices of the Honourable Prime Minister
Freundel Stuart and Caricom as we work to resolve the outstanding matters.

Yours Sincerely,

Dr. Frank Anthony
