The APNU+AFC government will, at the next sitting of the National Assembly, be called upon to answer questions about the decision to rent living quarters for Junior Minister of Natural Resources Simona Broomes at a price tag of $500,000 per month.
The public became aware that the property was rented for Broomes from public funds after Landlord Peter Ramsaroop instituted legal action against Broomes and the Parliament Office for breach of contract. That action has since been withdrawn.
Clerk of the National Assembly Sherlock Isaacs had publicly indicated that an administrative decision was taken to rent the building for the minister who is entitled to $25,000 in housing allowance. However, he did not identify who made this decision.
