According to James Agalga, the ranking member of the ad hoc committee looking into the story of the leaked IGP tapes, the committee’s investigations are over, and the report is currently in draft form pending member approval.

He stated that even though the committee’s investigations are over, members have not been able to meet for the last time to unanimously approve and adopt the report as required by the House’s Standing Orders due to budget-related matters in Parliament.

He did, however, emphasize that the committee will meet to finalize and endorse the report as soon as members have completed the budget estimates.

“The committee has concluded the investigations, and we have a draft report that is yet to be considered by all the members of the committee because, per the Standing Orders, draft reports are subject to approval by the members of the committee, so that is what is outstanding.”

“Unfortunately, we are in the budget season and all the members are caught up in their various committees and are working on budget estimates. I had warned that there was a need for us to act expeditiously so that we could have skipped the budget season, but things did not happen that way so we are hoping that as soon as we are done with the budget estimates, we can convene and adapt the report.”
