(March 1, 2021) – Progressive Conservative Party leader Ches Crosbie is calling on Premier Andrew Furey to release all background reports, data, and analyses the Liberal government has turned over to Dame Moya Greene to help her draft her suspiciously delayed report.

Previously Dame Greene said she had been provided with information from the Executive Council to help her prepare recommendations for the Premier. Crosbie says that information must be released to the public today.

The Progressive Conservative leader says that, with the report conveniently delayed, the least Andrew Furey can do is be transparent with voters and release the background information his government has provided Dame Greene.

“With so many in our communities concerned about their jobs and the services they depend on, voters deserve access to the same information that Dame Moya Greene has,” says Crosbie.
“When it comes to the Greene Report, Andrew Furey has misled the public at every turn. For once, the Premier needs to be truthful with the people of Newfoundland and Labrador.”

Crosbie says failure to share the background information provided to Dame Greene with the public will prove the Liberals are hiding big cuts and lost jobs.

“The Premier will stop at nothing to stop the Greene Report from seeing the light of day before his mess of an election concludes,” said Crosbie.

“If Andrew Furey truly wants to reassure the public, he’ll release all supporting documents today.”
