GECOM granted $$millions more …despite unaddressed fraud issues

Fraud allegations involving the expenditure of $100 million still hang over the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) which has been approved to spend $192.8 million on capital projects in 2018.

All of the actors at the center of the Auditor General’s investigation into the alleged $100M fraud that surrounds the purchase of communication equipment remain in place. The Commission which is still to hold its first meeting in nearly a year is said to be delaying further action on the forensic audit report.

The Ministry of Finance has indicated that GECOM and other constitutional agencies have not submitted a procurement plan which was a requirement of the 2018 budget circular
