Gonsalves said he was not asking the CDB to undo their declaration of misprocurement and he doesn\u2019t want any bad relationship with the bank or its president, Dr. Warren Smith, adding that there was mutual respect.<\/p>

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

\u201cI ask that question though, to him: do you think the official at the CDB would have acted so precipitately and not pay the courtesy to call to the chair of the tenders board in Jamaica, Trinidad or Barbados?\u201d<\/p>\n

He said Smith had indicated \u201cto me he didn\u2019t think that would make a difference. I say, unfortunately I think different.<\/p>

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

\u201cI don\u2019t see a CDB official misprocuring without talking to the chairman of the Tenders Board where the procurement is done under the regulations of the particular country,\u201d Gonsalves said, adding that he had infused in many regional institutions an anti-small island bias by some officials.<\/p>

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

\u201cYou have had it in West Indies cricket for a long time and even now. You have selectors telling you or coaches\u2026I have heard that they have said, \u2018Well you see in the Windward Islands and St. Vincent, is bush cricket they play.\u2019<\/p>\n

Gonsalves acknowledged that he cannot prove that there is an anti-small island bias in the CDB.<\/p>

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

\u201cBut I feel it in my bones from my long years of experience that if it were a procurement agency of Jamaica, of Trinidad and Tobago, or Barbados, in the absence of fraud or corruption, they would have called the head of the tenders board.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gonsalves said he is not saying that the person who declared the misprocurement has this anti-small island bias.<\/p>

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

\u201cBut I am looking for explanation, that\u2019s why I say I pose the question, was it done deliberately or recklessly in not asking the chairman of the Tenders Board. But this is a standing caution to all entities, regional or international dealing with his government; it must deal with it with respect, and with our institutions.<\/p>

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

\u201cIf we made a mistake, we will acknowledge it and the president of the CDB said they would acknowledge their mistakes too. Doesn\u2019t mean they will acknowledge their mistakes publicly. They don\u2019t have to do that. They could acknowledge it internally.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earlier this month the CDB said that it had found no evidence of \u201cfraud or corruption in declaring the misprocurement\u201d in the project.<\/p>\n

In a statement issued following talks with Finance Minister Camillo Gonsalves, the CDB said it declared misprocurement \u201cas the procurement process was determined, on review, to be not in accordance with the bank\u2019s procurement guidelines\u201d.<\/p>\n

Smith and a team from the bank, met in Kingstown recently with the Gonsalves, and other representatives of the Government and the statement said Smith highlighted the strong partnership with St Vincent and the Grenadines since the bank commenced its operations almost 50 years ago.<\/p>\n

The CDB declared misprocurement after it had given a letter of no objection for the award of the contract to the local firm, Reliable Construction Service Ltd.<\/p>\n

However, Bally and Bally Investments, one of the unsuccessful tenderers complained directly to the bank, after the Ministry of Transport and Works in Kingstown said that a second review it requested of the IBI Group, the consultants, also recommended that the contract be awarded to Reliable Construction.<\/p>\n

The CDB said it declared misprocurement because Reliable Construction did not have the required financial information, access to financial resources, or specific experience.<\/p>\n
