Dear Editor,
The Parliament Office has noted the comments of prominent columnist Freddie Kissoon in an article entitled: “I doubt I will vote in the next general elections”.
The Parliament Office wishes to make it known to the public that neither the Speaker of the National Assembly nor the Clerk of the National Assembly has the jurisdiction or authority over the roadways outside the Parliament Buildings compound. Therefore, the Speaker and Clerk have no right to direct the Guyana Police Force as to the operational matters regarding security arrangements that are implemented to address traffic and security concerns on days of sittings.
Following the passing of a Resolution pertaining to the Police Force’s erection of barricades around the Parliament Buildings, the Commissioner of Police was accordingly informed of the contents therein. In subsequent meetings held between the Security Sub-Committee of the Parliamentary Management Committee and Officers of the Guyana Police Force, it was determined that to the best extent possible, there would be a relaxation of the levels of security cordon placed around the Parliament Buildings. Nevertheless, the final decision on the levels of security around the Parliament Buildings would be determined by the Guyana Police Force based on its assessment and determination of threat levels.
S.E. SAACS
Clerk of the National Assembly
