Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
PHILIPSBURG, St. Maarten - United People’s (UP) party Member of Parliament Tamara Leonard has sent a letter to Chairwoman of Parliament Sarah Wescot-Williams on Thursdayasking why she has not yet received answers from the Council of Ministers on questions she posed in last week’s Central Committee Meeting on the draft 2016 budget.
The MP asked in her letter for an update on the answers and indicated answers are needed as soon as possible. “Receipt of the answers and related documents is vital to my preparation for the plenary session of Parliament on the same Budget set for February 29,†she stated in her letter.
It is her HOPE that she does not have to wait until just before the debate convenes to receive the answers from the Council of Ministers. “There is absolutely nothing hampering the completion and delivery of the answers in writing by the Council of Ministers to Parliament,†she said.
