Answers to Commissioner of Inquiry in a single box | The Guardian Newspaper

Joseph Waight The Commission of Inquiry into the sale of government assets got underway on Monday, February 15. The first witnesses to be called included, former Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow, Financial Secretary, Joseph Waight and the manager of Government Assets, Ruperto Vicente. The entire exercise was, on the very first day, confirmed to be nothing more than a witch hunt. When Financial Secretary Joseph Waight took to giving his testimony, he told the commissioners that he had brought along with him a box containing all the files that pertained to the period in question from November 2019 to November 2020. As has been said all along, any and all information that was required for an investigation was readily available to the commissioners without having to burden the Belizean taxpayers with the expense of an inquiry.
