Premier David Burt Respond To Cole Simons Audit Allegation

Once again the Opposition Leader is just trying to make headlines. The Opposition Leader knows that the Auditor General has audited and will continue to Audit the Government’s COVID-19 Response and all funds spent in that response. This Government will continue to support that effort as there is nothing to hide when it comes to funds spent to keep Bermuda safe.

Also, the Opposition Leader doesn’t need a press release to get information surrounding this or any other Government contracts. Mr Simons serves as Chairman of the Public Accounts Committee so he can conduct his own inquiry if he sees fit, which would be much more effective than attention-seeking press releases that call for what he knows is already taking place.”
