Attorney General and Minister of Legal Affairs, Anil Nandlall, is convinced that the Opposition is using every trick in the book to stall the passing of the “extremely important” Anti Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism Bill (amendment).He said that the Opposition has reduced the National Assembly to a stadium to facilitate political football.The Minister echoed that view at the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) weekly press, where he spoke as a member of the Central Committee.Attorney General,Anil NandlallHe told reporters that for reasons that are now well-known, the government returned the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism Amendment Bill 2013, to the National Assembly after it was defeated by the Opposition “for no good reason or cause.”Nandlall said that the Alliance For Change (AFC) continues with its casino-type politics. ”The AFC position is using their support for the AMLCFT to gamble for the Public Procurement Commission. They have no problem with the Bill. According to them, the Bill is perfect. However, they will not support it unless the Public Procurement Commission is established.“We reject this ad terrorem approach. We say that the Public Procurement Commission and the AMLCFT are mutually exclusive matters,Cheap Stitched Jerseys, each being important in its own right and each must be treated in accordance with their own needs and peculiarities. Each has its own process. In any event, the PPP/C administration is not prepared to gamble on matters that are so important to our country and our people.”Nandlall added that the PPP views A Partnership for National Unity (APNU)’s position that the matter be sent to the Select Committee as yet another device in stalling.He said that for the last six months, “they have been parroting, publicly, that they have amendments to make to the Bill. None came forth in six months in the previous Select Committee. Again, none was proposed on the floor in the National Assembly during the debate.Mr. Carl Greenidge, who spoke for the APNU, appears bent on upstaging his leader, Nandlall said.“He appeared uncompromising and relentless. He has listed a series of demands all of which are unrelated to the Bill stating emphatically, that unless those demands are met, the AMLCFT will not be supported.“If we are to use that as a guide, it does not appear that there is much hope for support for the Bill. The transmission of the Bill to a Select Committee seems to be another political game. For the sake of our country and our people, we hope that we are wrong. Thus far, we have done everything that we can do to have this Bill passed.” |
