Two reports on Guyana’s staging of the Cricket World Cup 2007 matches have not yet been made public a year after the event and the board of directors to oversee the affairs of the Guyana National Stadium at Providence is still to be set up.
According to Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Dr Frank Anthony, his ministry is still awaiting the audited financial report from the Office of the Auditor General. All the statements have been submitted to the Office of the Auditor General, he said, adding that he expects that within another two weeks the audited report would have been returned to the ministry after which the expenditure and other financial matters would be released.
