Reply to "AG Williams Says Presidential Pension Reforms Will Not Affect Jagdeo, Ramotar, & Hinds"

Django,

Public Pensions are not clearly and exclusively "property rights" issues as they represent recurrent charges on the Consolidated Fund.

Parliament has exclusive authority when it comes to charges on the consolidated fund. They can (if they had the will) vote $1 towards the payment of Presidential Pensions. Technically that satisfies the claim of "property rights" if such an argument is advanced.

Guyanese lawyers are always the least imaginative lawyers out there. And in a field of dim wits, our AGs tend to lead from behind.
