But Enriquez believes that, since the PM had decided on the election date way back in December, he could have started working on the redistricting if he actually wanted to. Enriquez says breaking the promise he made to conduct the process following the 2020 elections is disrespectful to the people.

"By the time he was thinking of calling elections way back in December, why did not he think about correcting the malapportionment from then? He had a lot of time and he was just saying we were looking at the election, we were planning election right after Christmas with all his closest advisors."
"I find that to be very disrespectful for the Belizean people. If the priority that he promised was to have balanced electoral divisions and he decided not to do that and instead have an early date for election, then I find that to be very disrespectful."
