Aruba MEP prepares no-confidence motion against Finance Minister Wever
Aruba’s opposition MEP faction is preparing a no-confidence motion against Finance Minister Geoffrey Wever following a parliamentary debate regarding the National Ordinance on Standardization of Top Incomes (LNT).
The MEP alleges that Wever misled Parliament on three specific points during discussions about amending compensation rules for directors of government-owned companies. These allegations concern his statements on legal advice, the evaluation of existing laws, and the application of exceptions for local directors.
Parliamentarian Eduard Pieters of the PPA has criticized the government for previously granting an exception under the LNT for the Aruba Airport Authority. Pieters noted that on November 6, 2025, the government authorized a remuneration of Afl. 1,089,396 for a CEO, an action he claims was taken without prior parliamentary consultation and potentially due to pressure from the Royal Schiphol Group.
