All government tenders are by definition public tender. This of course means that the effort to hide information from those entitled to it has no legal basis. There is no law between a person and their property. In the US, all information about government, meaning, the public, tender bidders and buyers is by law available to the public. The AG must therefore, at his office premises, make such public information available for review and research by both the media and the public. The rights of the owners of tendered material, overrides government\u2019s desire to hide information about the bidders and buyers of public tender. The AG forgot who he is working for. Hint: the Public.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>And about toll charges at the bridges raised Adama Barrow, I\u2019d have to agree with his decision to a point. Anyone who purchases fuel for a vehicle, can afford a nominal toll tax. Foot and cart traffic should be exempt from such taxes. The requirement to charge toll fees is not uniform around the world. Some governments exempt foot and bicycle traffic paying toll fees. Knowing to some degree conditions in Gambia, I can comfortably say that most in the category of foot and bicycle traffic can\u2019t afford the toll fees, and shouldn\u2019t be burdened with it. The ball is in government\u2019s court.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
