Minister for Housing and Works, the Hon. Maria Browne, has firmly addressed opposition claims surrounding the recent vehicle procurement matter connected to the ministry.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

During an interview with ABS Television, Minister Browne clarified that vehicles were purchased without the necessary approvals, the issue was promptly corrected, and all 30 vehicles were returned when identified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She stressed that there was no violation by the Ministry of Works, and that attempts to link the matter to the ongoing Customs and duty-free matter were inaccurate and politically motivated.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very unfortunate that the opposition has sought to twist what was a simple administrative correction,\u201d she said. \u201cThey have tried to tie two unrelated matters together \u2014 but there is no truth to those claims.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Minister Browne reiterated that she has remained transparent and accountable throughout the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Opposition United Progressive Party has staged a number of failed protests, motorcades, and public meetings calling for the minister\u2019s resignation.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have done nothing wrong. I continue to serve with integrity, and I will not resign over false claims. Anyone seeking answers has every right to request documentation through the Information Commissioner. We have nothing to hide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minister Browne also confirmed that stronger auditing and tracking practices are already underway. The ministry is conducting a comprehensive vehicle audit; labelling government vehicles for clearer identification; and ensuring cars go to officers who require them for field duties, not administrative staff.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEverything happens for a reason,\u201d she noted. \u201cIf this situation strengthens procurement across government and closes loopholes, then the country is better for it.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Minister Browne reaffirmed her commitment to delivering on behalf of the people who elected her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI remain focused, I remain committed, and I continue to represent the people of St. John\u2019s Rural East and the nation with honesty and purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n
