Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
WILLEMSTAD/PHILIPSBURG--Suspended President of the Central Bank of Curacao and St. Maarten Emsley Tromp has not passed the security screening required by law for persons holding confidential positions in Government and government-related entities.
Finance Minister Richard Gibson Sr. announced the result of the screening in the Council of Ministers Press Briefing on Wednesday. While the law stipulates the embattled Central Bank cannot serve the post due to the results, he does have the possibility to challenge the situation in Court. Should Tromp take this route, filling the president's seat will continue to be in limbo until a final decision is rendered by the Court.
