Stabroek News published a verbatim account of his interview with the reporters after his weekly press conference.
Below is the verbatim account of what Dr Luncheon said:
“KN: When was the policy changed?
Luncheon: What policy?
KN: The policy not to pursue mining in that location.
Luncheon: I am uncertain that there was indeed an explicit policy, we’re divided, we are divided and this division does not extend to all other levels other than cabinet so we have indeed over the last, I think it was the 2006 term of President. Former President Jagdeo did indeed discuss the issue of mining and exploring in the New River Triangle, in that area, sorry instead of saying New River Triangle, in that area at that time the President had a strong position that was not consistent with others in the cabinet but we are an advisory body as you would recall.
KN: So the President gets what the President wants?
Luncheon: I didn’t say that, we are an advisory body as you would recall and therefore the President’s view held sway. That was 2006 to 2011…2006 to 2011
KN: And President Ramotar is continuing?
Luncheon: I am not saying anything further— 2006 to 2011″
