Activist makes access to information request for disclosure of Impressions’ deal for building expo

Jonathan Yearwood

Civil activist Jonathan Yearwood has written to Commissioner of Information Charles Ramson Sr requesting a copy of the contract(s) entered into by the Ministry of Housing and Water with Impressions Inc, particularly relating to the organizing of the ongoing International Building Expo.

On July 15, Stabroek News reported that Impressions Inc appeared to be the sole company of its kind selected to organise and run the ongoing International Building Expo at the Providence Stadium.

The issue of Impressions’ involvement with the Building Expo was raised at a ministerial outreach in Buxton, on July 4, when a young businesswoman had questioned why she was sent to Impressions Inc. to secure a booth at the Expo.
