OPPOSITION Leader Pennelope Beckles said she remains convinced there was not sufficient consultation before the appointment of the new Chief Justice Ronnie Boodoosingh.

Speaking to media prior to the continuation of the Standing Finance Committee at the Red House, Port of Spain, on October 24, Beckles said her issue was with the time line of the appointment, not the choice of Boodoosingh to fill the post.

“The issue is that I laid out very clearly the time frame: 6.30 in the evening while I am in Parliament to bring a letter that had some errors, 8.30 in the morning you seek to deal with that error and 2 pm you appoint. I don’t think it is unreasonable for me to say that is not sufficient consultation.
