Uncle
Gnarley Blog received the Government's reply to my letter requesting that the
Premier call an investigation into Nalcor’s award of the contract for the
construction of the Labrador Island Link (LIL) transmission line.
While the
letter was sent to Premier Paul Davis, it was his Natural Resources Minister,
Derick Dalley, who replied.
Readers will
recall that this Blogger was contacted by an anonymous person calling himself
“Tender Man”. The concerned citizen had conducted extensive research into Nalcor’s
handling of the contract award, having documented the process of Nalcor’s
decision to first meld one tender into another, and then award the contract
without competition. The documentation was gathered from Reports posted on Nalcor’s
web site over several months.
