Indarsingh slams closures

Prime Minster Dr Keith Rowley made these announcement at the post cabinet news conference at the Diplomatic Centre on THursday.

Indarsingh said this was a continued assault on the country’s workers.

In the case of Caroni Green, Indarsingh said this was a tool to diversify the economy but the People’s National Movement (PNM) has a problem with anything with any reference to Caroni 1975 Ltd.

Predicting there will be massive job losses in this fiscal year and beyond, Indarsingh called for the creation of an unemployment insurance fund and amendments to the Retrenchment and Severance Benefits Act
