Georgetown : Head of the Presidential Secretariat Dr. Roger Luncheon speaking to the media said, the installation of the Interim Management Committee (IMC) by Government has satisfied the court ruling as it relates to the matter. Cabinet is of the view that this observation has apparently been lost to the critics at large about the very nature of this intervention.
He said that Government is merely complying with a court ruling; noting that the sad state of cricket administration in Guyana of which incisive documentation about the unaccountable and unacceptable state of affairs that exist, is publicised to both domestic and regional stakeholders.
Dr. Luncheon said that in so far as its composition is concerned, the Clive Lloyd led body can be expected to perform with regards to cricket administration in the best interest of the sport in the country and in terms of antecedence, the objectionable current reality will provide for the body to formulate and implement appropriate remedies. These, he said, are the functions expected of the IMC.
In December, the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport announced the formation of a 15-member IMC, based on the Chief Justice, Ian Chang’s ruling on August 22, 2010.
The IMC will be in place for a limited period of six months, during which it would be reporting to the Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Dr. Frank Anthony on a monthly basis.
Upon completion of its work, it will report on its major findings, make recommendations for the way forward and invite an authority with competence in electoral matters to hold elections for office bearers at both the regional and national levels.
