DURING the recent budget debate concerning the National Assembly’s consideration of Governments Fiscal Expenditure plans for 2024, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance, Gail Teixeira defended the 2024 budget allocation to the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), to enable the Statutory Body to be fully prepared for the holding of Elections. Her excellent articulation of rational arguments drew no meaningful counter-challenge.
The preceding supports our constitutionally enshrined democratic ideals, and our Dr. Irfaan Ali-led People’s Progressive Party/Civic Government through this budget, recognises the constitutional level of GECOM’s autonomy and needs for fulfilment. It is without contradiction, demonstrative of the necessary commitment required, to ensure the removal of unnecessary financial obstacles to the rollout of the organisation’s readiness plans. Key in this respect is the avoidance of delays due to a lack of funds that can impact preparedness schedules, for the institution’s hosting of general and regional elections due in 2025.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.
