The Auditor General’s 2018 report has raised questions about large expenditures on the maintenance of vehicles in the various regions including on some of the buses provided under President David Granger’s transport programme for schoolchildren.
According to the Auditor General’s report in Region 1: Barima/Waini amounts totalling $50.996M were expended on vehicle spares, services and repairs to the Regional Administration fleet of vehicles.
However, historical records were not maintained to monitor the individual cost of repairs and to determine whether it was economical to retain or dispose of these vehicles.
