Pay body disputes air story
Saturday 6th June 2009, 2:29PM BST.
THE States pay body has released a contrasting account to that of Chief Minister Lyndon Trott of the events surrounding the handling of the airport firefighters’ dispute.
Public Sector Remuneration Committee chairman Al Brouard (pictured), who submitted his resignation in protest over the handling of the matter, said he was adding to Deputy Trott’s question-and-answer-style letter to deputies to offer them a fuller picture.
One major point of difference was whether PSRC had been briefed as to the action that was taken on Tuesday 26 May.
The chief minister’s answer was yes. ‘The deputy chief executive, who sits on EPAG, met on a number of occasions with the chairman of the PSRC and all of his senior staff during the morning. Indeed he accompanied the chairman on a visit to Radio Guernsey, Channel TV and Island FM at midday.’
Deputy Brouard responded: ‘No, this is inaccurate. The chairman of the PSRC had no knowledge of EPAG meetings and, more importantly, had no knowledge of any EPA meeting until 3pm when, about to leave Frossard House, he was asked to attend an EPA meeting at 5.15pm, later discovering that the start time was 4.30pm.’

So mr Trott not being entirely honest,, i for one didn`t expect anything else.
maybe he can pull the wool over the general publics eyes but he might find that a bit more of a task with AB.
Never mind Mr trott, B flouquet will be getting ready to stand for CM again again again and again,
what a joke.

Its nice to see that a States Committee is being treated in the same dishonest way as the Landsbanki Guernsey Depositors have been for the last seven months by the Chief Minister. He is showing himself as someone whose word cannot be trusted and who is prepared to say whatever may be convienent (to him) at the time.
