EDITOR, The Tribune.
Your editorial of today (December 6), put the matter of the BEC management arrangements quite bluntly, but absolutely quite correctly. Not unusually, it seems that our Cabinet does not speak about, nor correspond on, such matters of National, and now International import, as our Deputy Prime Minister, in yesterday’s Tribune, palmed the blackouts off as simply “old” equipment, but our Prime Minister, in today’s Tribune, is demanding an inquiry, as he has it on good authority that the problems are human ones.
I think that while our Prime Minister is in the mood for an inquiry, that the terms of that inquiry might perhaps be broadened, so as to include a FULL inquiry into how this company, Power Secure, came to be awarded a contract such as this one, to manage this Government Entity.
The good news is that an inquiry in the United States where these people are from, will uncover things, that are not readily apparent nor publicly known in this country.
It would seem that the Prime Minister now understands the urgent need for a Freedom of Information Act.
Certainly if we terminate their contract here, they may wish to challenge that termination over there, and then we will be told all of the terms and conditions, written and not written, about how this deal came to be.
