MPs to monitor Guyana\'s security sector

A bipartisan parliamentary oversight committee has been set up in Guyana to monitor the country’s security sector.



The National Assembly yesterday approved a motion establishing the committee.



It’s charged with examining the policies, laws, performance and administration of the security forces.



Opposition MP Debra Backer of the Peoples National Congress has been making a case for opposition chairmanship of the committee.



However, the suggestion was rejected by government MP Anil Nandlall.
