By Keeran DannyThe Private Sector Commission (PSC) is disappointed that vital Commissions that would essentially ensure accountability and transparency of Government and public officials are taking too long to be established.This sentiment was expressed yesterday by Ramesh Dookhoo,NFL Jerseys From China, Executive Member of the PSC during a press conference focusing primarily on the Opposition cutting $31.35B from the $208.8B Budget proposed by Government.There,Cheap NFL Jerseys, he drew the nexus between Guyana’s economic reality and governance in terms of domestic issues, and emphasized that governance cannot be divorced from investors’ confidence and economic stability.Ramesh DookhooDookhoo indicated that limited access to information, inability to communicate and Government not meeting the demands of an 11-point proposal crafted by the Opposition, might have been responsible for the cuts.He related that He he the PSC had examined the proposal and found many of the points to be reasonable,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, while others should not have been included if Government had stayed within the law.The Executive Member said that all the outstanding Commissions to be established are a state of affairs that is frustrating the PSC. He lamented that this scenario has been ongoing for years.“You hear a story from one side and you hear another story from the other side. I think we need to wake up and we need to put Guyana first. We need to get these Commissions set up and have them functioning properly,” Dookhoo said.Only recently,Stitched Jerseys, the United States of America 2012 Human Rights Report highlighted Government’s apparent ineffectiveness in implementing laws that provide for criminal penalties for corruption by public officials.The report zeroed in on the fact that public officials are subject to financial disclosure laws and are required to submit information about personal assets to the Integrity Commission. In addition, the absence of a Public Procurement Commission and the lax implementation of the Auditor General’s recommendations were highlighted.In relation to that report,Pat Tillman Cardinals Jersey, Dookhoo said that he is sure that it will push everyone in the right direction to have those Commissions being setup. However, there are some Commissions that are established but the Opposition is gravely concerned about their functioning and confidentiality.“You hear a story from one side and you hear another story from the other side. I think we need to wake up and we need to put Guyana first, we need to get these Commissions set up and have them functioning properly,” he added.The Opposition parties have been advocating for the creation of the Public Procurement Commission to ensure taxpayers’ dollars are properly expended. It was expected to be created last year, but has not materialized to date.According to Dookhoo, the Public Procurement Commission is a major issue for investors and a large part of the population.“I think all of Guyana wants to have the Public Procurement Commission set up, yet we seem to have no dialogue taking place. We are disappointed that these Commissions are taking so long to set up…what we are hearing is this side to do this and this side to do that, but there is no real movement to benefit our citizenry. We need to have horses enter the room and have them sit on the best sofas in the house,” he said.Another PSC member, Kit Nascimento, during the press conference,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, added that the body has found no fundamental reason why the Public Procurement Commission is not appointed.“One side makes some excuse or the other. We get the impression that if both sides sit down and discuss, it would happen fairly quickly. And that is the type of pressure we want to bring to bear as a Commission.”Another Constitutional entity that begs appointment is the Ombudsman. For years Guyana has been without an Ombudsman.According to Dookhoo,Supply Cheap Jerseys, one of the points on the proposal made to Government was the appointment of the Ombudsman which would help with accountability and transparency. He stressed that citizens must feel they have a place to go to if they are wronged.He also commented on the fact that many tax tribunals are not functional and need resuscitation. Dookhoo said that taxpayers need to be assured that those tribunals are being setup. Moreover, the opposition approach to Government has to do with transparency and accountability more than the consideration to development benefits.He said that politicians need to stop paying lip service and solve the real problems of the country. He stressed that the PSC has a zero tolerance to corruption at the national level and at their own companies’ levels. As such, the body claims to be non-compromising when it comes to accountability and transparency.

While the Guyana Teachers’ Union (GTU) has lauded Government for taking some action towards addressing protracted concerns of public school teachers,Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys, President of the Union,Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys, Mark Lyte,Cheap Jerseys, is adamant that in some instances, the process is slothful.GTU President Mark LyteLyte, speaking at a recent GTU press conference, informed the media that while Government has agreed to pay debunching monies to teachers, which represented part of a multi-year agreement with the previous administration, the payments are yet to materialise.This is in spite of the fact that the GTU is in receipt of formal correspondence that the debunching money will be paid.“We have received a correspondence from the Minister of Education (Dr. Rupert Roopnaraine) stating that teachers will be paid one per cent (of each month’s salary) commencing 2011 to 2015 as agreed in the multi-year agreement,Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale,” said Lyte.The letter in question, according to Lyte, was also forwarded by the Education Minister to Minister of State, Joseph Harmon, on April 22, 2016.“We are anxiously awaiting the disbursement of this one per cent payment as agreed upon,” said Lyte.According to him,China Jerseys Cheap, teachers have already waited 10 years to receive the debunching money. “The Union is happy that we have been able to get a commitment from the Minister of Education…our teachers across Guyana need to be informed that we are still awaiting this disbursement,” said Lyte.According to Lyte, a teacher who earned $100,Marshon Lattimore Jersey,000 in 2011 will be entitled to $12,000 at the end of the year. However, teachers who received a promotion during the five year-period would be eligible for an augmented amount. “All of that would have been taken into consideration to apply this one per cent,” the GTU President explained.He asserted that the payable percentage would only be offered to teachers who were active during, or at least part of, the agreed upon period.“Even if a teacher retired in 2012, that teacher will be eligible for a portion of the debunching money; the same one per cent of their monthly salary,” Lyte asserted.Based on the agreement with the Ministry, the debunching money should be payable before the end of this school term. Lyte is moreover optimistic that the timeframe would not elapse without teachers being paid.Another issue that the GTU has kept on the front burner has been that of duty free concession. Several teachers eligible for duty free concessions to purchase vehicles have for a number of years been denied this privilege under the previous regime.The issue had reach controversial proportions, with the Education Ministry and the Union casting blame at each other for the stalled availability of duty free concessions to the teachers.On this issue, the A Partnership for National Unity + Alliance for Change coalition, upon being elected to office, had given a favourable response to the GTU.The Union earlier this year was able to meet with the Minister of State in this regard.GTU General Secretary, Ms. Coretta McDonald, had told this publication that, “within the agreement we would have had about 148 head teachers and deputy head teachers who had not received approval for their concessions. We had to get that sorted out with Mr. Harmon, because he is the person responsible for approving duty free concessions.”The outcome of the meeting was favourable, McDonald had disclosed.Lyte disclosed that only last week the favourable response was essentially fast-tracked when the eligible teachers were contacted Wednesday to make available to the Ministry of Education quotations for their vehicle of choice to the Ministry of Education’s Personnel Department. This, according to Lyte, is to allow for the teachers to have their duty free concession letters prepared for the Guyana Revenue Authority.“The teachers are happy that they are also going to be receiving their duty free concession,” said Lyte,China NFL Jerseys, as he added that while the pace has is not desirable, “we must show appreciation for the effort put forward by the current administration to resolve these matters.”

– UG to receive $2.9B supportIn a $250 billion national budget presented yesterday by Finance Minister Winston Jordan, the education sector has secured the expected lion’s share. This has translated to $43.1 billion or 17.2 percent of the entire budget.This allocation, according to Jordan, serves to indicate that Government has given increased priority to the delivery of education across all levels.According to the Minister, too,NFL Jerseys Outlet, the allocated sum is expected to have a more definitive role in changing the development trajectory.Included in the education sector’s allocation is a sum of $1.9 billion for the school feeding programme and $578 million to purchase textbooks.And Jordan underscored yesterday that “together with the President’s 5 B’s Programme, these measures are expected to result in improved attendance, attentiveness,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, and productivity.”In addition to this, Jordan said that in order to address issues of overcrowding and facilities’ improvements, over $3.5 billion has been allocated to construct, extend, rehabilitate and maintain schools,NFL Jerseys China Cheap, teachers’ quarters and other buildings.Within this, several new schools are slated for completion,NFL Jerseys From China, including Yurong Paru Nursery and Hiowa Nursery in Region Nine; Bamia Nursery and Primary in Region 10, and Baramita Nursery in Region One.A total of 481 trained teachers were added to the pool of qualified teachers in the public school system this year. However, Jordan disclosed yesterday that in 2017, “we will aim to add another 600 to afford each student increased quality contact time. Furthermore, we will step up distribution of 61 computers under the One Laptop per Teacher Initiative, which was launched this year.”Approximately 9,500 laptops are slated to be distributed to teachers countrywide to improve classroom instruction and productivity.Meanwhile, the Minister in his presentation yesterday revealed that in the area of Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET), about $2.4 billion will be invested in the coming years to improve learning outcomes of students, at the secondary level, with the aim of expanding the pool of employable,Cheap Authentic Jerseys, certified labour that can adequately bridge the skills gap. This investment will see the expansion of TVET programmes into four hinterland regions and Minister Jordan revealed too that next year, a $2.5 billion allocation will cater to TVET interventions countrywide.Added to this, the Minister announced that special focus will be placed on improving access for persons with disabilities.Further, he revealed that Government, in keeping with its commitment to ensure that all sectors incorporate the fundamentals of a green economy, has ensured that the Ministry of Education partnered with the Guyana Energy Agency (GEA) to reduce the usage and cost of electricity in schools. Energy assessments, he said,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys, have been conducted at 29 secondary schools.“We have rehabilitated 1,870 watts of photovoltaic systems and installed systems at selected schools in the hinterland regions, so as to facilitate the resumption of the interactive radio instruction (IRI) programmes and improve lighting in these schools,” related the Finance Minister.Government has not been limited in its education for development vision. According to Jordan, Government is also paying keen attention to the University of Guyana – the national university. This facility he disclosed remains critical to enhancing Guyana’s human capital stock which is necessary for the diversification and ‘greening’ of the economy.“We look forward to the ongoing repositioning of the University and the efforts to generate revenues and pursue investments that will create a more financially sustainable institution,Cheap Jerseys Outlet,” he noted.As such he revealed that in 2017, the Government will allocate $2.9 billion to support the university’s operations and construct a teaching and learning complex for mathematics and science. Added to this, he said that the Student Loan Agency will be restructured to: (i) ensure institutional sustainability, (ii) achieve efficiency in processing of student loans, (iii) enable an electronic database to improve client interactions and (iv) improve customer service.But according to the Finance Minister, increased financial allocations alone will not suffice to transform the sector.He made reference to the need for all stakeholders to efficiently play their roles in ensuring that only the desired educational outcomes are forthcoming. Such outcomes, he observed, cannot be realised if teachers are either unpunctual, are frequently absent from classes, or when they do show up for classes, are deficient in classroom instruction and management.“It will not suffice if parents are not investing their time and effort to support learning outcomes and it will not suffice if a head teacher fails to care and to supervise. It will not suffice if a Regional Education Officer is not held accountable for learning outcomes. It will not suffice if our lecturers at University do not show up for class, fail to deliver the content, and are tardy in the submission of student grades, and it will certainly not suffice, if we as parliamentarians fail to prioritise the education of the next generation. All must change their attitudes towards educational development in this dear land of ours,” the Minister asserted.
