The long delayed Local Government Commission (LGC) is no closer to being realised as both government and opposition have made no steps to resolve a stalemate over its composition.
In February, opposition Chief Whip Gail Teixeira had told Stabroek News that the PPP was willing to humour Minister of Com-munities Ronald Bulkan and convene a consultation with all parliamentary parties to receive suggestions of nominees for the LGC. However, last Thursday Teixeira seemed less than enthusiastic about this process, saying instead that she was not in a position to decide the date.
