RURAL Development and Local Government Minister Khadijah Ameen has rejected statements by former works and transport minister Rohan Sinanan that the Unemployment Relief Programme (URP) was more efficient and less corrupt under the former PNM administration.

In a statement on August 5, Ameen, the line minister for URP, said Sinanan has not yet received the memo — the “blame UNC” card has officially expired.

She claimed Sinanan has not accepted full responsibility for the state in which the URP was left.
