Head of the Communication Workers’ Union (CWU), Joanne Ogeer, is calling for a full scale investigation into who caused Minister of Public Utilities Marvin Gonzales to misinform the Parliament last November, in relation to the ransomware attack against state owned TSTT.
Ogeer said: “It is our belief a further investigation should now take place into the source of the information as allegedly provided by Mr Khamal Georges and allegedly approved by the GM of operations and administration. Also, who substantiated the statement, that is to say, was it IT, before the statement made its way to the honourable minister?”.
Ogeer further demanded that anyone found culpable be held accountable. This includes the potential for Minister Gonzales to be brought before the Committee of Privileges of the House of Representatives.
“No one is above the rule of law and to every action, there are consequences for which there are authoritative bodies to treat with such consequences,” she said.
