'I will make myself available' for CoI- Speaker Willock
Hon Willock had been summoned by the Commission to appear today.
Hon Willock, in a press statement from the Office of the HoA, said he was made aware that members of the public, his Honourable colleagues in the Fourth House of Assembly, family, friends and the media have been concerned as to whether he will appear before the one-man Commissioner Mr Gary Hickinbottom today.
According to the Speaker, who this week blasted Commissioner Hickinbottom for his alleged “blatant disregard” for the House of Assembly and its members, his schedule does allow him to honour today's hearing date.
"Please note that the House of Assembly has been recessed until Thursday, June 24, 2021, and my next Parliamentary activity is on Monday, June 21, 2021. Therefore, I will make myself available today at 12:00 noon to find out on what basis I have been summoned and hope to learn more about what this Commission of Inquiry is about," Hon Willock said.
"With God’s help, I will never let you down."
