 HAG Determine to Raising Revenue at all cost
By: Ian George
The single mother and her six children, who were uprooted from their dwelling at Hope in St. Andrew, by the Housing Authority of Grenada (HAG), are victims of an organization that is broke and desperate to raise revenue at any and all cost, to meet its mountain of debts.
This is the shocking and vulgar response garnered from Stanford Simon, chairman of the HAG, as he attempted to defend the Authority’s callous display of cowardice over a defenseless mother who herself is in dire need of all the help she can get.
Simon told the Barnacle in an interview, which quizzed him on what many considered to be the heartlessness of the HAG that the Authority was in a financial mess. As leader, he said, it is his responsibility to make things happen for the Authority.
He said that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has given him the responsibility to manage the assets of the Authority, and he has all plans of ensuring that he does not fail in the execution of his goals, mission and functions. |
