The Office of the Auditor General has recommended that the police be engaged to do a comprehensive investigation into the controversial D’Urban Park stadium and a report submitted for audit.
The recommendation for a police probe is contained in the 2019 report on the public accounts which was recently tabled in the National Assembly and comes in the wake of the runaround the audit office has experienced in gathering supporting documents for massive expenditure on the billion-dollar project which was launched by the APNU+AFC Government in 2015.
“The Audit Office recommends that the Head of Budget Agency engage the Guyana Police Force to conduct a comprehensive investigation into this issue, and a report submitted for audit, as this may enable the verification of the details relating to the $500M paid”, the audit office said after recounting much of what it had said in the previous year’s report.
