My attention has recently been brought to an article in the Penal Code (article 2:344) herewith attached.
I wonder if certain decisions made by members of the Gumbs Cabinet after they were the subjects of a vote of no confidence in Parliament, could open the possibility of those members being prosecuted personally? I read about the awarding of garbage contracts, I hear about political appointees and other temporary workers in various government jobs quickly being made permanent Public Servants, I again hear about a slew of Taxi and Bus licenses being made ready for issuance, I hear about Government Long Lease Land about to be issued in a Trump-like "huge" hurry.
Irrespective of my well known personal anti UP Party political views before and after the 2014 election, after the Gumbs Cabinet was put in place by Theo, I felt that with people like Marcel Gumbs, Dennis Richardson, Martin Hassink and Claret Connor in Ministerial positions, at least we would not have to worry about the absence of transparency, or the issue of integrity. According to me, at least these 4 Ministers out of a total of 5 and later a total of 7 would carry the integrity torch high and not allow partisan hanky-panky to take place during the change of guard. Are they now proving me wrong?
