Bernard Stands Firm Amid Security Contract Scrutiny

It’s a story that stirred up some buzz just over a month ago, Orange Walk Area Representative Kevin Bernard found himself at the center of questions over a security contract tied to domestic airports. The company in question, I Security Limited, had landed the deal… but that contract was later scrapped after concerns were raised about how it was awarded. Minister Bernard quickly issued a statement, making it clear he hasn’t had any financial ties to the company since August fifteenth, 2022. He says he fully divested his shares back then. So, when we caught up with him today, we asked if he had anything more to add. His response? ‘I’ve said all that needs to be said.’

“No comment on that matter. I already said what I needed to say. I believe that matter has been in the air for too long. Decisions were made by the people who have interest in that company and BAA. Other decisions were made to cancel those contracts and that is as far as I can tell you.”
