The Integrity Commission has recommended that Member of Parliament for St Catherine South Central Dr Andrew Wheatley be charged with illicit enrichment after investigators concluded that he possessed approximately $164 million in assets disproportionate to his lawful earnings and failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for the discrepancy.

The recommendation is contained in an investigation report tabled in Parliament on Wednesday, which examined Wheatley’s statutory declarations between 2010 and 2022 and his financial affairs over a 10-year period.

According to the report, investigators found that Wheatley acquired or owned assets between 2013 and 2022 that could not be reconciled with his known lawful sources of income. The report concluded that the unexplained disparity amounted to approximately $164 million.
