AT his October 23 post-Cabinet press briefing, Cabinet Secretary, Dr Roger Luncheon had indicated that Anand Goolsarran, Christopher Ram and Ronald Ali had made prejudicial statements about Geetanjali Singh’s professionalism in a matter concerning conflict of interest.

Mr Ali, President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Guyana, and Head of the Investigations Committee, has since drawn to Dr Luncheon’s attention the inaccuracy of including him in the list of the trio.
“For that error, I apologize,” Luncheon said at his press conference yesterday. However, he added: “But I did say to Mr. Ali that he was present and he spoke at the OAS anti-corruption body engagement that met here in Guyana on behalf of his organisation and did not seize the opportunity to disassociate himself nor his organisation from the prejudicial remarks that my records now show were made by Mr. Anand Goolsarran.”
