I can guess the demographic of that crowd:

Yet it should be noted an increasing proportion of respondents have indicated they disapprove of the manner in which Persad-Bissessar is handling the job of Prime Minister.
The respondents who held this negative opinion tended to be between 18 and 24 years, those from a high socio-economic background, and those of African descent.

Nevertheless we quite possibly are facing 7 more years of weekly scandals

So at the height of all this going on.....

$31.6m MAKEOVER for DPP OFFICE

Just days after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Roger Gaspard was mentioned in an alleged Section 34 e-mail conspiracy, Cabinet has announced a multi-million-dollar revamp of the DPP’s Office.

The controversial e-mail exchanges were revealed in Parliament by Opposition Leader Keith Rowley in which it was inferred that the DPP was to be asked to become a judge by the government which he has denied.

Attorney General Anand Ramlogan announced yesterday that $31,647,396 will be spent to increase staff from 30 to 237 at the DPP’s office while another $16,391,400 will be expended on infrastructural costs to accommodate the staff increase.

The Judiciary will also benefit from funding with an approved $13.543 million to improve its system.

Ramlogan was speaking at the post-Cabinet news conference at the Office of the Prime Minister in St Clair as he disclosed these figures and the upcoming upgrades.

He said in order to implement the Bill to abolish preliminary enquiries, logistical and capacity issues in the justice system must be addressed and two stakeholders were consulted—the Office of the DPP and the Judiciary.

A new organisational structure for the DPP’s Office, he said, was approved and will be formalised to include an additional 100 legal offices and 107 civil offices in terms of support staff.

Ramlogan said the one post of DPP will remain but direct deputy DPPs will be increased from two to three and assistant DPPs from three to six.

These posts are to take effect from June 1, 2013 and the Judicial and Legal Services Commission (JLSC) has the responsibility to fill the positions.

Ramlogan said the DPP’s Office is critical in the crime fight and this change was an historic one as nothing has ever been done since 1976 to improve it.

He said over the past ten years Governments have been grappling with curbing increasing crime while the DPP’s Office continued to suffer a lack of resources.

At present, Ramlogan said the DPP’s Office handled just about five per cent of all preliminary enquiries, adding that the department was “stretched to the limit” with 29 confirmed positions for attorneys, including the DPP post.

He said some 30 contract officers were hired over the years but was still not sufficient to alleviate the burden.

With respect to the Judiciary, Ramlogan said the funds would be used to meet additional necessary works in the area of accommodation, information, communication technology, court transcription services and also a secured courier service.

He said case load statistics showed that on average, 15,000 matters were previously heard by the magistrates’ courts and they will now be heard by masters of the High Court at the sufficiency hearing to decide which matters can go forward when they are ready.

In October last year, Ramlogan said to prepare and maintain the time limits and the schedule set out in the Act for the sufficiency hearing and to ensure matters go quickly to trial, Cabinet had approved an increase in staff.

These include four judges, nine Masters of the High Court, five new assistant registrars and deputy marshals, 17 judicial support officers, 12 case management officers and ten bailiffs, 17 judicial secretaries, 17 judicial research assistants and 17 court orderlies.

Infrastructure upgrades were also approved to house new staff.

Ramlogan said there will be changes to the Port of Spain Supreme Court, St George West Magistrates’ Court, Tunapuna Magistrates’ Court, San Fernando Magistrates’ Court, Tobago Supreme Court and the San Fernando Industrial Court.

The rest of the money is for outfitting requirements. He added that there was a backlog of notes that require transcribing in order for appeals to be heard with some 10,000 pages of notes for 700 cases that needed to be transcribed.

Cabinet, he said, agreed to hire qualified part-time court transcriptionists, who have already been identified and offered short term contracts.

Al-Rawi: Rowley was told e-mails genuine
Published: Friday, May 24, 2013
Gail Alexander


The whistle-blower who provided Opposition Leader Keith Rowley with a package of e-mails last December confirmed to Rowley the substance of the information was true, says PNM PRO Faris Al-Rawi.

He was asked about aspects of the controversy yesterday after the conclusion of debate on Wednesday in Parliament, where Rowley produced the 31 e-mails.

He said the e-mails, bearing the addresses of some high government officials, purported to contain a plot by those officials on the Section 34 issue.

Al-Rawi said he saw the e-mails for the first time when Rowley spoke about them to a PNM group last week Saturday before this week’s debate.

He said he pointed out the discrepancies to Rowley and he said Rowley said he was aware of them but he said Rowley specifically directed the material be brought forward to the Parliament in exactly the same format in which he had received it.

Al-Rawi said he did not think the discrepancies in the e-mails affected their credibility and Rowley had received hard-copy printouts of the e-mails last December and had also said he had verified them.

Asked if the whistle-blower had witnessed the purported events in the e-mails, the matter being written or had other personal knowledge of the e-mails which would support the whistle-blower’s claim that they were true, Al-Rawi said: “I can’t speak to that.”

He also said he did not know if the whistle-blower had sufficient background to be sure the e-mails were valid.

He queried what would be done to the whistle-blower if he or she were brought forward for which the UNC was clamouring.

Asked if Rowley then took the word of the whistle-blower, Al-Rawi said: “He assessed the information and it was apparent from events that transpired at the times when these were purportedly written that an investigation was required.”

On what other processes the PNM subjected the material to in order to verify it, Al-Rawi said he was not aware of other processes.

“But I know Dr Rowley says he was comfortable to bring this forward because, having taken it to the President, and it having gone to the Integrity Commission (IC) and there being no IC yet appointed, it is necessary to raise public awareness and public sentiment around these issues to press for the appointment of an investigator through the IC,” he said.

Asked about the view in some quarters speculating about the e-mails’ origins that the enemy of the PNM’s enemies were its friends, Al-Rawi said he didn’t know the whistle-blower’s identity or whether the police probe would cover all of that.

He said that was why a forensic probe was needed, perhaps with expertise from abroad.

He said Rowley felt compelled to bring the material to the Parliament “which is the only forum which affords protection for proper ventilation of this kind of issue.”

He added: “It’s the only forum which will cause the weight of public opinion to be raised to ensure institutions, like the Integrity Commission, are properly populated.

Al-Rawi said it was not for Rowley and the PNM to have evidence or to investigate the issue but to raise it for it to be investigated. He said the PNM did not have the resources the police had to probe the matter.

Asked why the party had not then taken the e-mails to the police or Director of Public Prosecutions or other authorities to check them out before revealing them, Al-Rawi said the information pointed to subterfuge among T&T’s highest office-holders and it was imperative to report that to no other than the highest office-holder in T&T, the President and the Integrity Commission.

“The IC has broad powers to allow this to be probed and can supervise, via independent authority. If the Prime Minister says the IC’s powers do not allow it to undertake this task, the Prime Minister stands in ignorance of Section 138 (2 )(d) of the Constitution, which allows the IC to monitor and investigate conduct, practices and procedures or dishonesty or corruption,” he added.

On another aspect of the controversy, Rowley said in Parliament on Wednesday that the “Thomas” referred to in one September 10 e-mail, whom he had guessed was US charge d’affaires Thomas Smitham, was not in fact Smitham.

Rowley said it was “another Thomas.” This was after both Government and the US Embassy pointed out Thomas Smitham arrived in T&T in late November, after the e-mail was allegedly written.

Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, ending debate on Wednesday, apologised to Smitham for his name having been dragged into the spotlight because of the PNM’s e-mails.

More info

Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar has volunteered to give up her Blackberry cellphone to police to assist in their probe of the PNM’s e-mails. She said during the conclusion of Thursday’s Parliament debate on the issue she had noted Opposition Leader Keith Rowley’s queries about if the police had checked any equipment in connection with the issue. She added: “They can take it. They can probe us. My hands are clean and my heart is pure. If there is any further information needed, I will hand over my Blackberry.”

Yesterday Al-Rawi said Government members mentioned in the issue should have done what was normally done in the private sector in matters like the e-mails, hand over all data, equipment and laptops etc. He said a search and seizure also applied in police cases. He also said all of the Government officials should have made a statutory declaration immediately that they were not involved in the e-mail issue.

Yesterday Al-Rawi, asked who the other “Thomas” was, said he did not know.

DCP Richardson has done a fine job so far of sealing the case of the Muslim men who attempted to assassinate the PM and other important cabinet ministers like Chandresh Sharma for having such a successful SoE. Also despite have video evidence and returned money, he is at the cusp of solving the Jack Warner bribery allegation at the Hyatt, just a year or two more.

His contract certainly deserves to be renewed.

That guy is the definition of incompetent. A big joke.
Question. Can a police investigation and an IC probe be carried out at the same time?

[BrandoHD]

If the police investigate this, then it's only to cover up the truth, as they have done and tried to do with many other cases

[pioneer]

Well if you all have the truth, then reveal it.
