Kaieteur News – Today’s sitting of the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) came to an abrupt end after opposition members walked out in protest over the attendance of Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill, leaving the committee without a quorum.

The meeting initially convened with a full quorum, presided over by Chairman Vishnu Panday alongside committee members Gail Teixeira, Dr. Mahadeo, Suresh Singh, Ganesh Mahipaul, Juretha Fernandes, and Nandranie Singh.

Kaieteur News understands that tension erupted early in the session during Agenda Item No. 1, the review of minutes from the previous meeting, when Bishop Juan Edghill entered the room.
