Former housing minister Camille Robinson-Regis is accusing Housing Minister David Lee of failing to exercise proper oversight over his ministry, following fresh controversy surrounding the Housing Development Corporation’s suspended $3.4 billion housing programme.
In a media release issued today, Robinson-Regis criticised Lee after he distanced himself from a Sunday Express report alleging that “compensation” was offered to a reporter in an attempt to kill a story linked to the HDC contracts now under scrutiny, saying he didn't know anything about what was reported.
Robinson-Regis described the minister’s response as another instance of “I don’t know”, arguing that it reflected a troubling lack of awareness about developments within his ministry.
