P.S.U. Wants Ministry of Youth and Sports Audited  

Flowers has also urged the auditor general to come forward and disclose whether an audit has been conducted on the Ministry of Youth and Sports to track how funds were used under the previous minister. He didn’t stop there—Flowers also called on Prime Minister John Briceño to explain if the current state of the ministry played a role in his decision to remove Minister Rodwell Ferguson from his position.

 

Dean Flowers, President, P.S.U.

“I am still waiting for the new auditor general to make a public appearance to lay out her plans on how she intends to carry out meaningful audits and especially risk audits on these high-risk audits that she knows exist. She knows they exist, but I have not heard anything. I am hoping we will hear from her on whether she would have conducted an audit on the transport department where Belizeans would have been denied services from that department by way of license plates and stickers for over two years, despite monies being allocated. We need to know where all that money. We need to know why the prime minister saw it fit to put Minister Feguson on time out in a corner under his ministry. The prime minister needs to come clean in terms of what occurred in the ministry of sports under the former minister, the ministry of transport under the former minister and what really occurred in the department of youth services.”
