Hon. Lillian Boyce says if she is one of the former Cabinet Ministers to be investigated she would welcome the probe because she would be completely exonerated.

“No one is above and beyond investigation, but I can assure the people of the Turks and Caicos Islands that I have not done anything corrupt or illegal, and I therefore anticipate being totally cleared in any fair and transparent investigation,” she said.

Hon. Boyce added: “Over the years I have worked extremely hard, honestly and unselfishly to establish a solid record of helping people and serving my country. I’m proud to have changed so many peoples’ lives for the better, and I will continue to do so. I’m therefore not going to allow Sir Robin Auld, Governor Wetherell or anyone to get away with even trying to assassinate my character or tarnish my reputation.”
