Walrond submits renunciation documentation to Parliament

Oneidge Walrond

At the request of Clerk of the National Assembly Sherlock Isaacs, Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce Oneidge Walrond has submitted all documentation related to the renunciation of her US Citizenship.

“I reached out to the Minister and she made a submission to me which is on my desk,” Isaacs told Stabroek News yesterday while stating that he had not yet read the documents presented by Walrond.

Questions about the Minister’s eligibility to sit in the National Assembly were first raised on Friday when opposition members claimed that she had not renounced her American citizenship before becoming a Member of Parliament (MP).
