PUBLICATION OF A CONFIDENTIAL OFFICIAL CORRESPONDENCE
The attention of the Ministry of Petroleum Resources has been drawn to a publication on a memo emanating from the HMSPR to the President.
Please note the following:
• The communication under reference is a normal procedural correspondence by the Minister to the President relating to developments in parastatals under his supervision.
• It is most distressing to the ministry of petroleum resources that a confidential communication to the President on the performance of one of its parastatals can be made public.
• The focus of the communication was on improving efficiency and deepening transparency in the oil and gas sector for continued investor confidence.
• It is noteworthy that the President has been fully supportive of the efforts of the Ministry to entrench good governance and accountability in the oil and gas sector.
• The Ministry of Petroleum Resources remains focused on achieving measurable progress in the implementation of the ongoing oil sector reforms in line with the mandate of the President.
Thank you.
