Young slams conflict of interest claim by Roberts about NiQuan
Minister of Energy Stuart Young. -
Minister of Energy Stuart Young is denying there is a conflict of interest between himself and NiQuan, as alluded to by UNC senator Anil Roberts on Sunday. I have never worked for NiQuan, Young told Newsday. I once represented Malcolm Jones who was a former chairman of Petrotrin when the UNC government commenced action against Mr Jones and others. The fact is that is was under the UNC government, between 2010 to 2015, that the World GTL plant was contracted to be given to NiQuan.
Responding to questions sent by Newsday through WhatsApp,Young called the “concerns” of a conflict of interest a “red herring” and advised that people not take (Oropouche East MP Dr Roodal) Moonilal and Roberts seriously.
