As a member of the public who weekly attends meetings of the Guyana Reparations Committee, I am very concerned with the public manipulation of the bi-monthly Reparations Now TVA Program which has been in existence for over 7 years. This show is usually slated for the second and fourth Sundays every month.

The show normally comes on at 8:30 pm immediately after the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha TV show which begins at 7:30. Whenever there is a holiday, the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Show keeps its time slot, and the Reparations Now TV show is either not shown or shown at an hour when the audience is going to bed.
