DEAR EDITOR,
There appears to be inordinate publicity given to the intervention of overseas Observer Missions to the upcoming General Elections, as if this exercise has not become a routine, without any initiative having to be taken by Government.
What, however, is interesting is that there has been no public conversation about the plethora of Observations/Recommendations made by the local and international Missions since as far back as 2006.
There certainly has been no publicity given to any of the corrective actions taken, if any. Few may recall that the first Observation/Recommendation made by the Carter Center Observer Mission in 2006 was to revamp the very model earlier proposed, and accepted current structure of the Guyana Elections Commission (as distinct from the Administration) which they deemed had become dysfunctional. This Mission’s updated evaluation in this regard would be most welcome.
Incidentally most stakeholders have forgotten that the Commission is a constitutional Agency accountable to Parliament, and not to the Office of the President, as has obtained these past decades.
E.B. John
