– aiming to get value for moneyBy Latoya Giles Attorney General Anil Nandlall says that he has started to review the contracting provisions which deal with the penalties for contractors and service providers who do “shoddy work”.  It was on Friday at the National Symposium on Procurement that the Head of State Donald Ramotar disclosed that he has instructed the Attorney General and the Minister of Finance to re-examine these laws because taxpayers should not be paying for this.According to Nandlall,Teddy Bridgewater Louisville Jersey, he is currently seeking to impose penalties and he has already moved to the courts against “Synergy Holdings Inc,” which was contracted for the Amaila Falls Project. “Government has moved forward with the lawsuit claiming damages in excess of $750M and also liquidated damages,” Nandlall told Kaieteur News.Nandlall further told Kaieteur News that he is also examining existing contract laws to ensure that where there is a breach of clauses,Jarrett Lee LSU Jersey, penalties will be enforced. Moreover, the AG said that he is also reviewing new contracts that are now coming onboard with an aim of tightening them.“I would also be amending and adding new clauses with the aim of ensuring that the likelihood of a breach is minimized.”He noted that the whole purpose of this was to ensure that taxpayers receive value for their money. The President on Friday last reiterated that errant contractors and service-providers could be banned for “shoddy” work.He said that he wants this “accountability” feature for the state,Jalen Rose Michigan Jersey, and added that the government has put a lot of work into the framework for this. He added that several systems were put in place for accountability and transparency.“The government has introduced a public procurement system, so that we could get public tendering for the government’s needs. We also introduced public opening of bids,Andre Johnson Miami Jersey, for persons who have an interest,Miami Hurricanes Jerseys, to ensure transparency.”He also emphasized that all of these things are being evaluated by technical teams,Odell Beckham LSU Jersey, and several persons were trained,Denard Robinson Michigan Jersey, because he wanted a wider rotation system.“We need a rotation, I don’t want to see the same names looking at and evaluating bids,” Ramotar asserted.He sought to clarify that cabinet does not award contracts, but gives no-objections.He said that if there are concerns, they would send the contract back with observations. The contract would have to be re-evaluated and returned to be taken into consideration.“We have to put in place strong legislation in order to try and ensure that our system is fair and we work under strict guidelines. The reason for this is that we want to ensure that Guyanese are getting value for their tax paying dollars.”Further lashing out at contractors, the President said that rain should not be an issue or excuse for not getting the job done. He said that everyone in Guyana should have figured out by now that we have a specific weather pattern because of our proximity to the equator.Ramotar also told the gathering that some of the variations are huge and sometimes these problems are with consultants,Collin Klein Kansas State Jersey, and engineers.He pointed out that this also relates to contractors who cannot finish their work,Maryland Terrapins Jerseys, which is unacceptable for a country like Guyana that is struggling to enhance people’s livelihood.“Poor supervision leads to shoddy work and is costing the government considerable amounts. Very often a lot of work has to be redone and these are things that we cannot tolerate, it takes away from different sectors,” Ramotar told the audience.
