"Those investigations have now drawn to a close. Those reports and files have been passed over to the DPP of the country and he will be in a better position to answer any questions...(about) what action will be taken."
Ramlogan also spoke about the CL payout proposed by the new government, noting that everything is legal.

"We have been careful about the deliberations and it is well within the law. Mr Maharaj is entitled to seek clients and represent them," Ramlogan said.
In his address to delegates to the two-day conference the AG spoke of a need for the various arms of the public service and Government as a whole and seek to ultimately better understand the need for reform and changes "if we are to effectively remove corruption of public life and have a transparent system of government."
He said corruption transcends borders and is sometimes difficult to contain. He admitted that fighting corruption requires international co-operation since the issue is no longer confined "to a local rum shop and parlour".
