New public service credit union executive to respond to queries by Co-Operatives officer

Guyana Public Service Co-operative Credit Union

Recently-elected Vice Chairman of the public service credit union, Patrick Mentore said that he is in the process of providing the list of persons who attended the Special General Meeting (SGM) on Saturday both virtually and in person as well as a list of those who voted.

Amid allegations by outgoing Chairperson of the Guyana Public Service Cooperative Credit Union Limited (GPSCCUL) Karen Vansluytman-Corbin, that the special general meeting to elect a new management committee was unlawful, Mentore said that he responded to a letter by the Chief Co-operatives Development Officer (CCDO) of the Ministry of Labour, Janaknauth Panchu on the matter.

Panchu in a letter to Mentore noted that unless the information requested is provided, he (Mentore) and other members “must refrain from assuming the duties of the Committee of Management or transact(ing) any business whatsoever on behalf of the Credit Union.”
