The Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment (PNM) has no plans to make its fi­nan­cial state­ments pub­lic de­spite the on­go­ing po­lice in­ves­ti­ga­tion in­to how its Bal­isi­er House head­quar­ters in Port-of-Spain was fund­ed, par­ty chair­man Mar­vin Gon­za­les has said.

Re­spond­ing to sug­ges­tions that the par­ty should re­lease its fi­nan­cial records in the in­ter­est of trans­paren­cy, Gon­za­les ar­gued that the mat­ter falls with­in the par­ty’s in­ter­nal gov­er­nance.

“The par­ty’s fi­nan­cials is a mat­ter for the mem­ber­ship through the Gen­er­al Coun­cil in ac­cor­dance with its con­sti­tu­tion. No one will im­pose val­ues on the PNM that they don’t live by and that in­cludes the UNC,” he said.
