St. Ann Municipal Corporation Office of the Contractor General November 2017
CHAIRMAN:
Did you engage Ms. Beverly Smith in
anyway, in terms of the contract she got,
ma'am? Forgive me, Ms. Beverly Sinclair,
did you engage or have any role in terms of
the contract that she got, ma'am?
A:
No, sir.
CHAIRMAN:
Do you know in particular how the
contracts were given to her or by whom
?
A:
The recommendation was made through
the office to the Parish Council.
CHAIRMAN:
Through your office?
A:
Yes, sir.
CHAIRMAN:
Do you know by whom?
A:
Can you rephrase the question, please?
CHAIRMAN:
I was asking in respect of Ms. Beverly
Sinclair, your mother, I had asked you
earlier whether or not you had played any
role in terms of the engagement of her. You
had answered that, so I went on further to
ask whether or not you are aware of the
terms of engagement of Ms. Beverly
Sinclair?
A:
I am the person who prepares the letter
that goes to the Parish Council.
CHAIRMAN:
So you prepared a letter advising the
Parish Council that you mother, Beverly
Sinclair, was being recommended for a
contract? Was to be awarded a contract,
I am sorry.
A:
I prepared the letter based on the
recommendation made to me.
