Teixeira reels back in claim about Adams and 2016 PSA

Dr Vincent Adams

Following a charge that it had lied about Dr Vincent Adams on Tuesday before the United Nations Human Rights Committee in Geneva, Guyana yesterday said that it found it inappropriate to be asked about the appointment of the current Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Head.

Guyana’s representative, Minister of Parliamentary Affairs and Governance, Gail Teixeira  clarified yesterday that when she referenced former EPA head Dr Adams on Tuesday it was to highlight how the state party felt about his role towards the 2016 Production Sharing Agreement.

This was not what Teixeira had told the committee on Tuesday. She told the committee that Adams had overseen the 2016 Production Sharing Agreement (PSA).
