The Newfoundland and Labrador government is calling in the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary to look at the Adult Basic Education program on Bell Island.

The government launched a review in September after Liberal MHA Yvonne Jones complained and asked why Tory MHA David Brazil was involved in the program.

Jones says Brazil was responsible for accepting public money for the program while he was also signing the cheques for employees.

Advanced Education and Skills Minister Joan Shea said an internal review has now concluded, and officials feel the file should be handed over to the Constabulary to ensure the review is complete.

Shea is not commenting on the development as it is now with the police.

Brazil told CBC News he has not been informed about the findings of the investigation and has no comment at this point.
