Port boss faces list of mismanagement accusations

Port Authority of the Cayman Islands

George Town cargo port, Grand Cayman

(CNS): A damning report released by the auditor general has revealed a significant list of allegations against the director of the Port Authority of the Cayman Islands (PACI), ranging from mismanagement to potential fraud and corruption. Clement Reid is accused of breaching recruitment practices, spending over $130,000 decorating the port offices without approval, allowing staff to go on paid leave to work for the former opposition leader and of turning a blind eye to the theft of boat engines, among other revelations.

The findings are set out in an spin-off audit from the original financial review triggered by a catalog of accusations over what took place at PACI during 2016 and 2017. The redacted report was released by the Office of the Auditor General on Friday evening following a number of freedom of information requests fuelled by rumours over the last few months about the allegations of significant irregularities at the authority.

Despite emails that had been sent by PACI Board Director Errol Bush to quash internal rumours about the issues, saying that things were not serious, the report outlines a list of issues that expose the mismanagement of public funds and raise a number of questions about potential abuse of power and possible corruption.

The numerous accusations relating to the mismanagement of the recruitment process, including bias and favouritism, inflated salaries, excessive and unapproved spending on renovating offices, including the purchase of rugs and poufs, as well as the theft of boat engines, the release of a salvaged vessel to disputed owners and allowing a member of staff, on several occasions, to take more than 60 days paid leave to travel with McKeeva Bush.

The report outlines serious infractions regarding recruitment, where senior staff were appointed or promoted without jobs being advertised or the involvement of the human resources manager. The report found that regulations were not followed when it came to background checks, and medical and clearance certificates. Salaries were agreed with those given the jobs that were well above the advertised pay or exceeded the stated bands. In more than half a dozen cases involving recruitment and promotion decisions the laws were broken and internal codes breached, the audit report said.

The auditor general also outlined the granting of special paid leave to an unidentified member of staff who was given permission to go overseas on six separate trips between March 2016 and March 2017, for a total of 63 days, to assist McKeeva Bush, who was the opposition leader at the time, as his driver. The auditor found this contravened the authority’s own rules, as there is no provision to allow port staff to take paid leave to assist MLAs.

The report also reveals a jaw-dropping expenditure on soft furnishings at the port offices, which, according to the OAG, were not approved by the port board, as well as other major renovations at the port HQ. Almost CI$136,000 was spent on these upgrades, but the auditor said that there was no evidence of an outline business case, a tendering process or approval from the board, or that the expenditure was ever budgeted.

In a spending scandal akin to that plaguing some of the Trump administration’s Cabinet members, it appears the port director spent almost CI$31,000 on rugs, vases, poufs, lounge chairs and dining tables. The remaining cash was spent on upgrades to various offices and office furniture.

The audit review further suggests that the port management turned a blind eye to what was essentially the theft by some port staff of four boat engines worth around $6,000 that were taken from Harbour House Marine, where they were being stored awaiting disposal. The OAG found no official approval or authorisation for staff to have taken the engines but no action was taken by management about what the auditor general suggested was theft.

The audit also questioned the process surrounding a wrecked vessel that was released to a port employee even though a member of the public has also claimed ownership. Two separate but conflicting reports were made to authority from customs and the police over who had found the boat and, in the absence of an owner coming forward, who would have a right to claim it. The port director was accused of not following the correct procedure, bypassing the official channels for dealing with wrecks and signing it off to a person whose claim was in question.

The redacted report contains correspondence and various documentation to support the findings during the specialist audit but there is no management report or response from either the port director or the board of directors and its chair.

It is understood that the OAG had referred the issues to the Anti-Corruption Commission but sources told CNS that no action was taken by that body because the issues were dealt with under internal procedures, though the outcome of that has not been revealed.

CNS also understands that a response to the report does exist but was given directly to the authority’s board. We have requested that documentation and have also contacted the port director for comment and we are awaiting a response to both.

      This is such an ignorant and dangerous comment to make. You forget that countries like the US and the UK struggle with the same issue of finding persons to work in their own countries and they all prefer to hire immigrants not necessarily always for the right reasons. Its not a DNA issue. Your comments though reek of ignorance which is so dangerous for all of us. Anyone here on a permit has been sifted out from many in the country they come from. No one pays work permit fees for someone who doesn’t qualify and fits the bill and if you don’t perform you will be terminated and sent home. Makes perfect sense. Therefore to suggest you are better than Caymanians is ludicrous. You should know better!

        She is a dishonest crook! Her husband repaid the money and had to have known about her criminal actions. If you have done nothing wrong why are repaying stolen monies from the Pines?
        They should both have their Caymanian status revoked immediately.
        If she comes back to Cayman she should be arrested at the airport.

      Explain this to me. The private sector complains about no accountability in Government. But whose job is it to hold the Director of the Port accountable. Private sector board members.

      Maybe it’s time to rethink who these directors are accountable to. Clearly the present system is not working.

      Or maybe it’s time to get professional board members and stop appointing political cronies. Oh wait the public authorities law requires that.

    So the Anti Corruption Commission wouldn’t take any action on this because the port board or its members were allowed to carry out the investigation even though the board members were already derelict in their duties by enabling this corruption and abuse to happen under their watch? Wow!

  13. Facts please says:

    Let’s get the fact straight.

    The Director at the port is not a civil servant. He is a public sector worker.

    There is a private sector board that appoints the director and could have fired him.

    The Director is one of the higest paid directors in the public service. Probably more than the Governor ,Premier and the DG.

    Now you see why these run away SAGC’s fought the public authorities law. They didn’t want to be held accountable. Sadly the Law cannot control weak private sector board members.

    The public authorities law will go down as one of the most important laws the PPM every passed.

    Even in the civil service such a flagrant abuse of the law would have been dealt with.

    Thank you Premier and Deputy Governor for getting the public authorities law passed. We call for this weak private sector board to be replaced.

    CNS please publish the names of the Board Members.

    CNS: The list is on the PACI website here.

CKIA have senior staff who are always at Spot Bay or Panama Canal playing dominoes during working hours, there is an Immigration Officer who is given every Thursday off (or any day that the barge is in) to work at the Port Authority on barge days, there is a customs clerical officer who travels up and down the road all day accompanying a senior customs officer, for what we do not know. The list goes on and on and nothing is done. They are protected.

      The port isn’t only government dept that allows employee to go missing during working time. DOE come to mind I worked there once and same people are still getting away with doing there own stuff. This is serious problem and in part is due to CS allowing 2nd or 3rd businesses that they run during government time.
      This must stop.
      If you work for government you should give your minimum hours before conducting personal business at public expense, HOD should not give permission without assurances in writing.

    I guess Clement Reid did not bow to every request from Miniser Moses Kirkconnell, Chief Officer Stran Bodden, Port Authority Board Chairman Errol Bush and deputy chair Gerry Kirkonnell or failed to blindly support every initiative like the cruise port.

    Therefore the usual politics and modus operandi demands that there must be an audit to attempt to legitimately discredit a bright young Caymanian in a leadership role. Was Mr. Reid too closely affiliated with his predecessor Paul Hurlstone?

    The Port Authority Board are responsible for management. The Port Authority Chief Financial Officer reports to the Director. The Director reports to the Board. The Board are political appointees who are loyal to Minister Kirkonnell and are all party supporters. Connect the dots…

      Only in Cayman, having read this catalogue of mismanagement, could all these problems be described as an attempt to “discredit a bright young Caymanian”. Only in Cayman could a very senior immigration officer be accused of harbouring an illegal alien, only in Cayman could a very senior customs officer be accused of avoiding customs duty, only in Cayman could a vehicle examiner write off a customer’s car by reckless driving, only in Cayman coud the head of the RCIPS Traffic Dept be found guilty of DUI and leaving the scene of an accident, only in Cayman could firemen engaged in a “speed test” write off a very expensive fire engine. These are just a few of “only in Cayman” incidents which by good fortune have not been covered up and I invite readers to add to the list. Note the common denominator.

      They have failed miserably. One reason is that they successfully fought the Law that would oversee them. The Public Authorities Law which the DG and the Premier passed in 2016. Now you see why they fought the passage of the Law.

    I urge you all to repent. Turn yourselves in to a local pastor (who is not a mason) and pray for direction.

    Perhaps you will not have to serve too long in prison and when you come out, you can demonstrate how much you have all changed. Please do this before it is too late.

    Alden McLaughlin, the Master Mason cannot save you.

      12:36 hush talking rubbish. I am a mason and I can assure you that any wrongdoing by any mason has nothing to do with him being a mason. And a mason who does wrong gets expelled not supported. Ask Austin what his experience was!

      Now tell me the last time you have seen any churches expell anyone for wrongdoing? Life in Cayman is replete with the church embracing and supporting even the most dastardly who are convicted of serious offences eg child molestation! Oh they will kick you out if you admit you have been gay from the day you were born or legally marry a same sex partner though!

      By the way I will criticise anyone at least as quickly or quicker than you will for wrongdoing and I am not representating the lodge cause I am not a committed and regular member. I am also not against churches.

      I just dont like nonsense, injustice or hypcrisy.

        How in the hell would an Austin Harris even be invited to become a Mason in the first place?

    What is happening in the Civil service makes me ashamed to be a Caymanian.

      Not the civil service….the statutory authorites. They have been ripping us off for years. Check the salaries of the Heads of Maritime, CAA and CIMA. They all hate the new PAL because it prevents them ripping us off.
