Georgetown:Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh says he is disappointed and concerned about the opposition approved motions to cut the funding of several key, transformational projects.
The Finance Minister was giving an overall view of the 2013 National Budget debate which concluded Wednesday evening.
The Finance Minister said he was very concerned at the opposition’s refusal to consider government’s arguments in support of the affected projects and programmes.
Dr. Singh opined that budget 2013 remains a good menu of policies and interventions for Guyana and they will continue to take Guyana forward.
He expressed the hope that the political opposition reconsiders their positions and the affected projects can be reinstated with unanimous support as soon as possible.
In brief remarks, Prime Minister Samuel Hinds said he felt deflated, but government will get back to work on the process of developing Guyana.
