The Integrity Commission (IC) has moved to set the record straight about information it has requested from parliamentarians on assets they acquired, in some instances before becoming legislators.
Delroy Chuck, a member of the Integrity Commission Oversight Committee (ICOC), said yesterday that parliamentarians had shared with him requests from the IC for information about assets they acquired years ago, in some cases dating back decades.
However, Director of Information and Complaints Joeth Jones said the IC has no jurisdiction to request information from parliamentarians about the source of funds used to acquire assets in the past.
