THE Opposition will be examining the Integrity in Public Life Act and Data Protection Act to determine if Minister in the Ministry of Housing Anil Roberts broke the law when he revealed personal information of St Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves and his family regarding the purchase of three HDC apartments at the upscale Victoria Keyes development in Diego Martin.
At a media conference on November 13, Opposition Leader Pennelope Beckles said from their initial perusal of the Integrity in Public Life Act Roberts may have breached Section 28 which requires officials with access to sensitive information to keep it confidential “unless the performance of duty or the needs of justice strictly require.”
She said Roberts behaved in a “reckless” manner when he placed financial information and other personal data of Eloise Gonsalves, the Prime Minister’s wife, and their two younger children, Storm and Soleil related to the purchase of apartments at the upscale Victoria Keyes Housing Development into the public domain.
