Dear Editor,
Is anyone thinking about the usefulness of these inquiries? Old people always say that before calamity strikes there is always a warning. 17 prisoners died, an inquiry is held! Why? There were fires before but no one taught it humane to ask the prisoners. They waited until 17 kicked the bucket, period! Now an inquiry is held and those serving are being paid (smile) to find out why. Maybe we should have the commissioners work pro bono and use what was supposed to pay them to build another section of the prison. Just my thoughts. There was another inquiry set up to investigate the affairs of the Guyana Public Service. What did they find or what are they finding? Only heaven knows. How did public servants benefit? You may have the answer.
Many, many years ago, a political leader was assassinated. An inquiry was set up to find out who the culprits were. Those who functioned in that inquiry completed their report, yet a copy of the report is not available. It turns out another popular (dead) politician had a hand in his death. Although his family may be appeased, the general populace who paid the commissioners still need to know. There was no benefit as such to the general populace: no reduced VAT, no free transportation, no free pair of shoes. They are not even privy to the report by the commission, the format of which may help some budding lawyers and writers. Mr. Editor, who is thinking about the usefulness of these inquires to the population as a whole? Someone needs to tell these mature politicians that the populace have seen all the inquires. They can see. They need action now.
Ayanna Issacs.
