Despite an APNU+AFC manifesto commitment to take draft constitutional amendments to Parliament within nine months of taking office, more than a year into his administration, President David Granger is not prepared to commit to a timeline.
Asked by Stabroek News on this week’s “The Public Interest” programme if his government is willing to work with a strict, published timetable given the manifesto promise to provide a draft to parliament in nine months, the President said “talking about a timeline now would be premature. More than rushing to a timeline I would like to see thorough countrywide consultations not boardroom consultations.”
