There should be no perception of conflict of interest at procurement commission – Figueira

Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) of Parliament, Jermaine Figueira, says that it is important there not be even a hint of a conflict of interest in the membership of the procurement commission.

Figueira was responding to questions from Stabroek News following the disclosure that a nominee to the Public Procurement Com-mission (PPC) had since been appointed to a senior position at a company which will be creating a shore base to service the oil and gas industry.
